And as for your constant OOC attacks, I've had enough. You're going on ignore.
You can look over my posts for OOC attacks if you want - I don't remember making anyway. But I'm pretty sure announcing an ignore is counted as trolling?

Are you serious? Announcing an ignore is considered trolling? Man, I've never seen such incredibly stringent definitions of flaming and trolling as I've seen on the NSG board. Let's just try to relax a little.

And I'm not trying to flamebait... just an honest plea to please relax, EVERYONE! :)

Eh. That's pretty minor, all things considered. If it continues, (ie: "You know, you really should ignore Grue; that's what I did, and I love it!") then go ahead and report it. I wouldn't get to worked up about this.

Ok, that's fine. On reflection, it wasn't worth it - I was just being petty last night.

Personally, I prefer it if they tell me I'm getting added to ignore. So long as they don't doddle on the matter, don't mention it again, don't make snips that I can see but they won't ever see the response to, etc, I think it is nice. It lets me know what sort of audience I'll be playing to when I'm debating them and allows me to change my tactics to suit that.

From the OSRS
Politely informing another nation that you are henceforth using the Jolt "ignore" feature is acceptable, but repeating it in different threads or over long periods is considered gloating. Other cases will be considered on an ad hoc basis.

While its not the most polite way that Tarandella used, i'd assume that unless the other posts informing people that they are on ignore are worse than this one then it's probably not something the mods will act on.

I seem to remember that certain types of "announcements" can be considered flaming. A polite notification of ignore is usually not considered flaming, eg: "Don't waste your time writing a long post on the roleplay. I ignore you." I was "warned" once for flaming after I announced an ignore and then the moderator retracted it when he consulted with other mods.

As I say, I don't think it's actionable now; I shouldn't have reported it in the first place.

I think this port-mortem equine has been flogged enough. ;)
