here
Since I appear to be one of the only people with "thick skin" around here and me ignoring/deleting "offensive" (I use that word lightly since you should never be offended by anything on the internet or you shouldn't use the internet to begin with) telegrams and the like and then my replies get me in trouble so from now on I will just show them all here or via mod tg's

At least one of those falls under flaming flamebaiting or trolling...I've gotten warned for less...
Personally, I'd say you're the one doing more of said trolling and baiting than him.
Also, just because the mods warned you when you broke rules and posted that pic, doesn't mean you should go out and start calling out the mods, (Which you are by saying how you are the only one with a thick skin and whatnot) and then becoming the flaming nazi.
We have rules, the mods enforced them. It's that simple. We have so many people on this site that the mods have to be iron clad in maintaining the rules. I can't imagine how much coffee, and anti-stress pills these people take in order to deal with what they have to deal with.
You are really being childish about this. But, if thats how you roll, so be it.
I have said my piece.

Gataway, if you've received offensive telegrams, you've every right to complain. Do so through the Getting Help page, and don't delete the telegram(s).
As to the posts you complain of here:
Shorn of their mild sarcasm, the ones by The Blessed Chris that you have linked to say:
!. He thinks your sense of humour is beyond geeky.
2. He thinks you're seriously uncool.
I can't see those as anything but mild -- even fairly good-humoured -- insults, if they're insults at all.
This, on the other hand, I think we've totally screwed/hijacked this thread lol doesn't strike me as "lol" at all; it's rather mean crowing about the way the thread has been wrenched away from the harmless topic the OP started with.
What's more, thisI sense a great deal of sarcasm...someone needs to remove the stick or whatever object it is you have rammed up your ass and lighten up... is far from good-humoured.
Add that to some other information mods have available, and I think it's you who needs a brief break. See you in two days.

My sincere and extremely embarrassed apologies to Gataway, who has been unbanned. Because of technical problems at my end, I believed he was flaming another player under one name while complaining under his own. He was not, and I am sorry to have thought he would indulge in such unintelligent behaviour.
(This doesn't, however, change my view on his original complaint.)
