So are you reporting yourself as well? Baguetten's replies are in kind and character with the posts he's replying to. And he's right, it's not an RP forum; nor is "nice" a OSRS requirement.

I thought I was replying in kind to humorous posts, especially when replying to The Atlantian Islands, with whom I have in the past joked about his blondness and he in turn about bleaching, and this is not the first time he has joked about my imaginary fallopian tubes. I also saw Eutrusca's admonishment to "be nice" as too ironic to be real, but an invite to banter.

Apparently, I was replying to bait designed to have me be reported. Very well then, now I know what has become of Eut. I shall restrict my contact with him henceforth, the mods can be sure of that.

The two of you have both royally hijacked the thread with wasteful spam. Post 2 and 3 were valid, but everything after that becomes a hijack.

EDIT: I think there's nothing more problematic than that

Verily thou needest no bait.

Yeah, Eut.....Fass and I were just fucking around with each other. He was just making an inside joke to me about something we have talked about out of the forums...Not something to be taken seriously and reported. :p

And his things to you were just joking around with the sexual innuendo you posted to him.:) Come on bro, we were all just fucking around with each other...no need to bring this to moderation.

What debate? The poster made an accurate comment about it not being an RP forum, which is correct. And when you pressed that poster and got a response about irony you suggested you "had someting for" that poster which is obviously in the exact spirit of the reply you got. Nothing flaming about it. Nothing viscious about it. Just a person giving a snarky retort to a snarky comment. Given they are nearly exactly equal in spirit and direction did you think you were wrong when you posted your comment?

Since, as usual, Eut is being dishonest about this, let’s look at his posts:

So he plays this game, joins in the banter and then turns around in Moderation and claims he was taking it all deadly serious? Well then, perhaps his comment about hoping Nadkor literally splits open was serious? So either the little smileys he puts after each post are real indicators that he is joking, or they should be ignored and his posts taken seriously? Which is it I wonder?

Seems like he has a little vendetta against Fass and is just itching at any opportunity to create a situation for which he can report him.

Can't see why anyone would have a vendetta against Fass. He speaks his mind, that's all. He's also one of the most intelligent members of the bloody forum. We could use a lot more like him around here.

Intelligence is relative in this case.:D

Thats ok, there was nothing to handle in the first place really, just a big misunderstanding[?]:)

Bah, its a little bit of goodspirited word jousting, not worthy of moderation in my (irrelevant) opinion.
