We've danced around the is-it-or-isn't-it question for a while, but at this point, this post, it's transparently trolling.

This guy is going downhill. I don't remember much of his earlier nation's posts (The Mindset IIRC), but I remember that they were never this bad before, he was just a normal poster.

Oops, that particular post was a bit bad. It was badly worded, and yes, I can see how it could be considered trolling. My apologies.

MODEDIT: see comment

I am aware that many of my opinions are considered abhorrent, therefore I take care to word them in such a way as to cause minimal personal offence. In this case, I slipped up.

It was badly worded. However, your intention to insult another player directly was clear, and was sustained when other posters pointed it out to you. You also made evident in other posts that you consider the term very insulting, rather than mildly negative. Therefore, red card.

For flaming, not for trolling, BTW.

EDIT: The two posts I deleted as unnecessary looked very much like "baiting in Moderation" to me. Hydesland's I left because it contained relevant information. No more, please.

Yes, I unfortunately got carried away.
