Is the pigeon picture that I use considered trolling or anything like that?

I just thought I'd check before I use it more.

I'd say just don't over use it.

Ok. I remember the picture of "President" Bush quail hunting that resulted in DEATing.

Don't take my word for it; I'm just giving an opinion. ;)

That'd be my official opinion: Don't overuse it. Used in moderation*, it's fine.

* Note: I said "Used in moderation", not "Used in 'Moderation'". Note the quotes and the capital M.

That was a while ago, before the forum switch. I only remember it because Stephistan said something along the lines of "I can stand right wingers."

Dont worry, I wont use it too much. Only when needed.

Yeah, it was a month ago at least. Some poster using a huge picture of Bush hunting, presumably shooting down liberals. They used it in almost every thread without any other input to the topic of the thread(s), and got deleted for it.

Okay, if that description is literally correct, then that's a rule violation on two counts:
1) A picture of Bush hunting with a gun (with the attached implication that he's hunting liberals) could be construed as flamebait.
2) Posting the image without adding anything else to the topic (especially on multiple occassions) is trolling.

"Sir anarchist scum located"

"Anarchist scum destroyed."

It was something like that. I think "cottonisking" was the offender.
