Warnings handed out for the fun of it?

I'm sure Fris doesnt hand out warnings just to see his post count rise, but apparently not everyone shares my opinion in this regard.

Fris handed out a warning both in moderation (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=11933671&postcount=3) and on page 18 of the thread (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=11933680&postcount=266) where many of the offences (linked to below) occured.

On page 19, name calling (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=11935403&postcount=278).

Borderline, but light of Fris's warnings, perhaps over the line (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=11937793&postcount=308)?

Near as I can work out, the implied accusation (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=11938013&postcount=314) is that the poster referred to is both a slacker and a 'stoner'.

Perhaps the poster (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=11938210&postcount=318)thinks warnings are just fun optional extras.

Unless I'm mistaken blithely and unjustifiably calling other posters liars (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=11942486&postcount=331) was one of the reasons Fris warned the poster back on page 18.

Calling CanuckHeaven a troll (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=11944359&postcount=353)appears (to me at least) both uncalled for and unsubstantiated by the facts.

I doubt the poster believes (given that they are intentionally ignoring/defying an earlier mod warning) their assertion (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=11945267&postcount=359)here, I suspect that aside from unjustifible name-calling (a 2nd troll accusation at CanuckHeaven), the purpose of the post is to discourage another poster from making legitimate complaints in the moderation forum.

The comments and name calling (poster child for jealousy) (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=11935844&postcount=6)in yet another thread appears to be exactly the kind of conduct Fris issued the earlier warning for.

Not sure if this (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=11936130&postcount=34) skirts or actually crosses the line (surely only non-human animals have need of the vet's services), but in the context of the rest...

More name calling; (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=11937103&postcount=79) you silly Hegelian wank.

Some more 'savage' name calling (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=11937785&postcount=95).

Implying that posters who disagree are hate filled little monsters (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=11937985&postcount=108).

Perhaps borderline, but implying that every member of a particular group is immoral (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=11938201&postcount=120) seems like flamebait as I understand things.

It seems to me that the poster has no respect for other posters, forum rules, mod warnings and the explicit instructions of moderators. If I correctly interpreted Fris's earlier warning, this is consistent with the poster's conduct under an earlier (apparently mod-deleted) nation.

I hope my interpretation of the poster's conduct and the forum rules is correct and that I have not wasted moderator time by posting this.

Wow...all those links...

You must've spent a lot of time on that post. Unfortunately, though, that time is wasted. Fris is a highly respected mod (including by me) for one simple reason: he's fair. Furthermore, you imply that he posts warnings to boost his post count. That's just plain ludicrous.

If you've got a personal problem with Fris, which you do apprently, please take it up with him directly. You waste everyone's time with your attempts to smear him here.

Cluich, I think you totally misinterpreted this post. Zagat's saying BAAWAKnights doesn't respect my warnings, not that Zagat doesn't.

I'll have to look into this later, but I (or someone) will do so.

Looks like Fris has clarified matters. My explaination is now obsolete.

Yeah, after reading it again, my apologies to Zagat. Sorry 'bout that.

No problem Cluich, happens to the best of us. Your intentions were good. Nice of you take the time and effort to apologise.

Thanks, but it's not really much effort to apologise when you've goofed. ;)

The things you miss when you're laid-up sick in bed. What's with all the Subgenius references in the links, Zagat?

..."Slacklessness"... ..."Bob"... ..."pink-boys"...

The Hell? Did Ivan Stang become an NSer while I was asleep?

Or am I still feverish? Maybe that's it.

Back to bed with me, then.

I was under the impression Fris hands out warnings to keep up his total domination of the Mod Olympics. ;)

Sorry Fris, but that was too good a set up not to. I'll behave now.

And yes, I know the Mods wouldn't do that just for Mod Olympic glory.
