I think I remember seeing rulings about people who do this sort of passive-aggressive "flaming" get called out for it before.

Seems to have settled down for now.
To those who feel, life is a tragedy. To those who think, it's a comedy.

Just for clarification, my response was against the rules? And if it is, that's fine, I will stop.

I thought it was a clever way of showing distain for a posters posts, without violating the rules with a personal attack.

If it continues on, yes. I'd view it as baiting and possibly spam.

Fair enough, thanks for the quick response.
