I find his signature highly offensive, and I consider it flamebait. I wanted to break out my napalm, but decided to bring it to you guys instead.

If the link to their region was in fact a link to a literal "Catholic School Girl" website, I would consider taking action, but for now, it seems quite harmless. No action taken.

Instead of wasting space by making another thread, I'd like to direct this complaint here as well:

I seriously doubt either of those posts will be actionable for the Mods. Rude, yes, but they don't appear to be a rules violation. You might want to take a look at the One-Stop Rules Shop and find the relevant definitions of flaming, flamebaiting, and trolling for future reference, and then take a look through the past few days of threads in the Moderation forum to see what gets ruled a rules violation and what doesn't.
Keep in mind that I'm Catholic, so I'm not likely to be biased in favor of the poster you're complaining about. ;)

I see your point on the first post, but that second one looked like flaming to me.

It looks to me like he barely avoided flaming. "Walking the line" is what I would call it. But I guess we'll need to wait for a Mod ruling to be sure. Good luck. :)

Neither are close to flaming at all. No action taken.
