wow, call the fire department because this place is on fire
In my humble opinion IDF needs a chill pill. He was baited, but his response was totally over the top. Seriously people, debate without the 5th grade bullying garbage or leave the forum. It's time for a mod mop up in isle 5.

Greater Trostia is far more in the wrong here than IDF.

I guess you didn't read the whole page. I agree with Liuzzo, it's pointless flaming he is making.
How about we provide links to the actual posts, shall we?

Here is Greater Trostia's post that serves no purpose but to flame and bait.
And IDF's response.

I'm not sure how you found douch, moron and fool worth reporting but not... "raving, irrational, bigoted islamophobes who, if the times were just a little different, would be hating Jews instead of Muslims." and "I did however classify you and IDF as the bigoted trash you are." GT admitted that he considers it to be signs of a victory that he's gotten the other side angry. He eventually starts to make some form of an argument but only after blowing up the thread.

I could be wrong, but unless you're providing links or citing some rules, I don't think it matters who you or I agree with.

No, GT did not "admit" that. But I don't think I'm obligated to correct your spin on things any more than the moderators are obligated to take into account your own, wrong, opinion.

I am not agreeing with F&G. I'm just asking you to prove your points when you attack me.
I believe I already have.
Plus, your obvious anger is clear support of my position. I mean really look.
I guess that means that you don't consider his anger to be a sign of victory?

Yes, it is. I don't know what I was thinking.
I deleted the post.
I stand by EVERY single word I said in that thread.
GT is being a worm. He called me something I wasn't and refuses to back it up.
I am still awaiting my apology.
I don't know how he can even try to call me an anti-semite or a racist. I grew up in a home where my father was pretty anti-Islam. I have argued with him for years to try to get him to change his views but to no avail. Then GT comes in here and has no basis to debate my legitimate points and just screams racist. I take deep resentment to him calling me an anti-semite and anti-Islam. I have no qualms with Islam. I do however have qualms with the fundamentalists, but that applies to all religions. I don't like Fred Phelps, but that certainly doesn't make me anti-Christian. I hate the Haredi who throw stones at people who drive on Shabbat, but that doesn't make me anti-semitic.
I know I call other posters anti-semitic, but I post several links to prove my point. GT has been offered the same opportunity and is too much of a coward to admit he was wrong and apologize. Calling someone a racist or bigot is a very serious accusation. If you are going to levy it against anyone, you had better have solid proof or else apologize.

Okay, okay, OKAY! All of you, calm down and hold off. Don't even think about flaming each other in Moderation.
I'm at work and it's busy. I'm locking the thread temporarily until I or another mod can deal with it. Don't chase each other into other threads.

I've had enough. IDF, Greater Trostia, you have both been around long enough to know the rules. Since you both utterly refuse to follow them, you are both forumbanned for a week. I'm also making a note on your nation files that any further infractions should be handled by deletion.
It's time for you both to grow up. If you're too immature to talk rationally with each other, use Jolt's ignore function. If you're only here to poke at each other with sharp sticks, then you can go somewhere else.
You both have the potential to add to these forums by being thoughtful contributors. Sadly, you seem to want to spend all your energy being disruptive. This is your last chance. I strongly urge you to reflect on your posting styles.

All Hail Hack the Glorious one. I guess the point I was making in the beginning is that two wrongs don't make a right. I thought I was clear when I said IDF was baited something fierce. Thank you for your ruling and helping to make NSG a more...um... sane place to be :D
