Still, to me, unless he's using it in a malicious manner... I do still see it as oversensitivety, but I do admit, I don't know the history/lack thereof, bitween you two... I can only offer advice on such matters tthrough personal experience (And 12 years of forum use, both as staff and member is a heck of a lot)
Answer your question?

Well, that answers my previous question, yet raises so many others....Maybe I've started to scratch the surface of another lands flaming culture... I left the Games vs because of the level of idiocy there...
b!tch ermm
A whole new level of idiocy 😛
No, but threatening with "I'm Telling a mod that your bashing!" is a liittle less mature than talking to, or PMing the guy to get the scoop on why he's actually doing it, then asking him to stop... Remember, the mods cannot police every dispute in the forums, they do expect the membewrs to try a little conflict resolution before people hit the report button.
However, being a moderator and an admin across many different boards has given me an insite into the staff members minds....
Originally posted by Darkstorm ZeroThat's not being immature: quite the opposite. Instead of getting into a flame war, you report it to the proper authorities (mods). There's nothing immature about reporting. I see nothing to resolve between RJ and I because we don't know each other personally.

funny thing is that you posted in this thread before, not saying anything deragatory, THEN saw an oppurtunity to "subtlely" take a jab at me.explain?

Your telling me that a diplomatic solution is more mature than calling the Mod Squad to nuke him?
I didn't say it's immature to report, it becomes immature when you use that as a button of defence whenever you cop a little poke...
And that last part definitely is a copout, you don't know him personally, yet you argue with him in an off topic forum about your online name... along with some personal history...*Shrugs* my dillema thickens.
ROGUE... cut that out... I know your having fun, but if you keep gooing at that level, then it will cease being just some funny jabbing, and it will start being legitimate trolling...
It's like this, if you keep poking him in the same spot, eventually it's going to hurt, and people who are hurt generally retaliate with something more than a simple poke back.
Originally posted by Darkstorm ZeroI never said that a diplomatic solution was more mature than a diplomatic solution, I was just saying it wasn't immature, like you were implying.

I don't use the report button lightly.
Since you don't know any of the history with this issue, I'm not surprised that you think so. Just because I don't know him personally doesn't mean I don't want to be treated civilly on this forum.
