As the co-owner and operator of Madame Gazunda's House of Wonders, perhaps I should recuse myself from this discussion.

EDIT: Oops. ICly co-owner and operator. :D

Seriously, I can't see anything wrong with it. Condoms are not, of themselves, against any NS rules. I think it's a matter of see how it goes.

So far as I can see, it's fine.

Doesn't look to be in need of any preventative yet.

If anything, it's just more II for you. I think its hilarious in that immature "tee-hee phallus shaped cloud!" way that most of us secretly snicker at. Though no one cares what I think :'( oh well, CRUSADE FOR NATURAL SELECTION ONWARD!

Just a question, in this thread in question they know I am not a Mod, but I have told them some of the actions that may get unwanted mod attention. I of course may be wrong, but do you mind just letting myself plus two other posters and anyothers that may care.

Yeah I know that's what I meant I won't continue on the topic of whether calling somebody a moron is against the forum rules.

It's not, so there's no need to continue the discussion.

Flame: Expressing anger at someone in uncouth ways with OOC (out-of-character) comments (i.e. swearing, being obnoxious, threatening etc). It does to watch what you post IC (in-character) as well unless the other posters know you're not serious. You do not need to curse to be a flamer. Erudite slams while maintaining a veneer of politeness can also be considered flaming. Flaming in the forums should be reported in the Moderation forum, in the game itself, through Getting Help Page.

Flamebait: Posts that are made with the aim of angering someone indirectly. Not outright flame, but still liable to bring angry replies. Flame baiting is a far more subtle and covert action; it is an underhanded tactic that is designed to provoke a response from another player. It's in the same context of trolling but with flamebaiting it's just the one person.

It's not? But Ardchoille gave out a red card for flaming, I'm not going to question any mod decision but why did she hand one out if it wasn't against the rules? Ok there is a question there but I am only asking because I really would like to understand. Actually from memory the poster might have said tool not moron sorry.

Thanks for the link, would it be considered a flame because it was said within an OOC comment?

I hope I am not being to rude/disrespectful/annoying because of this continuation, I will stop asking about it if you want me to.

Calling someone a moron is flaming.
Flaming is against the rules.
There is no need to continue asking if it is against the rules, since it is spelled out in the rules.

I apologise if my answer was unclear -- I meant there was no need to wonder if it was a rule-breaker -- it is.
