Apologies; by the time I'd posted it (HP's thread) had been closed.

Are you sure you're allowed to browse the internet alone? What a joke.

And that is supposed to mean what? At least I don't go off on flaming great posts insulting numerous people simply because I'm in a bad mood. Regardless, also, of whether you consider your point valid, it is undeniably at the least trolling and more likely just outright flaming, which is - gasp! - AGAINST THE SITE RULES. Your instruction to others to read stickies is equally applicable to you.

Also I ought to point out that by screaming like that, you rather undermined your own argument and made yourslef look a fair bit of a prat.

It's obvious: having your own thoughts about things that completely mess up the game are not tolerated. I've put in the *strong* language to put my point across because it doesn't matter wether I do it or not; the thread would've been locked anyway. Flaming is against the rules. Ha! I can only laugh when I hear that. Flaming... Define flaming please. I didn't flame, I enforced my plea with language and it was directed at a group of people who shouldn't even be here in the first place. At least I know where I should poke my nose around the corner, others don't.

What should I NOT post in International Incidents?

Anything that is

Spam ("NOOKZ 4 SALE!!1111 5 BUCKZ APIECE!!11)
Strictly OOC material (What's your favorite color? )
Technical questions (How do I trade with another player? Or How do I add pics to my thread?)
Insult threads (Country X is a dumb-dumb stoopid head!)

You didn't just say "country X is a whatever," you said in fact "countries A to Z are complete assgoles who ought to depart this forum because I dislike what they say," in essence.

What can't I post?
Any content that is:

obscene
illegal
threatening
malicious
defamatory
spam

I believe that this falls into category four, also possible categories one and three, depending on how sensitive people are. Oh and maybe category five, but since you don't mention specific names maybe not.

Oh, and for your benefit, Flaming defined:


Flame: Expressing anger at someone in uncouth ways with OOC comments (i.e. swearing, being obnoxious, threatening etc.)though it does to watch what you post IC as well unless the other posters know you're not serious.

Trolling: Posts that are made with the aim of angering people. (like 'ALL JEWS ARE [insert vile comment here]' for example).

I think that might, just might be what you've been up to.

Also, yet again I point out that though your point may have been valid and the language in it intended merely for emphasis, there are better ways of doing it than casting aspersions on people's literacy.

Hmmm... I smell this could turn into something nasty, just keep it clean peep's, your in the mod' realm here ;)

Ugh.
