I've read in another thread that pointing out typos is considered flamebait. Since Ankhmet done this before, here's another great post.

Clearly has no value whatsoever to the thread.

EDIT: Upon reading a bit further, I commented on his unnecessary reply by saying he's as blunt as a cooking pot. Then, while it's not really thát bad, he replies to that OOCly with this: http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=9448511&postcount=18

From my perspective reading the thread as a player, I thought pointing out typos was flamebait only if someone took on an insulting tone with it. I don't remember someone getting an official warning for flamebait for it unless it was really incendiary.

However, I agree the second post was certainly uncalled for.

Well this all fits into the context of Ankhmet being deliberate in his quest for hunting down typos. In another thread (link posted by Kanuckstan in Moderation) he also did it and Euroslavia said it: posting typos without adding anything to the thread is flamebaiting.

I stand corrected.
