Both flamebaiting and flaming.

I also take issue with your opinion of states rights and queers getting married. You are a wierdo for even thinking about men marrying men. Come on now that is sick. Anyway, the problem is the full faith and credit clause of the US Constitution. If some pervy state allowed this the otehrs would have to recognize it. How does this protect the right of a state that does not want to allow such filth within their borders, nutter?

I don't post this in Moderation because it's offensive (though it is, mildly), but rather that it's wholly unnecessary. As the link shows, the poster goes on to present his ideas in a resonable fashion and contributes to the thread just fine. I object to the opening paragraph (quoted here) and its needless antagonism. It's like presenting a resonable position paper in a folder with "fuck you" scrawled all over it.

Is this where we lodge complaints against GF? Because I got one.

Not to be picky but why was this thread ignored while others here in moderation were answered?

Just wait. Often mods get busy and have little time to do things, and moving a thread from NationStates to gameplay is a lot easier than checking up on and turning out punishments for flaming. Mods need to be fair, and that takes time. Don't think they're ignoring it, they're just waiting until they can give it the time it requires.

Generally, waiting 24 hours is absolutely reasonable. S/he did. So either they ruled or missed this. Either way, it's totally fair for the OP to bump.

In fact, s/he waited 26 hours. You waited 5 and a half and I waited 7. Seems like it's reasonable to ask.

Addressed (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=13713784&postcount=139) -- finally.

Farflorin, the delay wasn't intentional. This particular request slipped through the cracks between mods' lives and modding stints. It happens.

(not often, though. Why, back in the day we had to wait months, months I tells yer, for a mod to come by, and half the time we had to dig 'em outta the snowdrifts and use up all our whiskey before we could get any sense out of 'em ...)

As you can see, I agrree with Intangelon's assessment that there's a fair cake under the bitter icing, so I've merely given the poster a relatively friendly warning. Glorious Freedonia, you'd better take it to heart.

See how helpful I am. What would the mods do without Jocabia.

*thinks*

Nevermind. Don't answer that.

I figured it might have, which is why I waited but them bumped. I like playing the needy pet card. :) The 'why aren't you petting me yet I was good' card.

That would be true if there were more mods... (like me!)
