Repeated Flamebaiting

Postby Shofercia » Tue Jul 31, 2012 10:36 pm

Yep, it's a thread about religion, so:

The rule/law is 'no religious symbols in public buildings/places/seals/etc.' It's been upheld countless times now. Intent doesn't matter, and that's been constantly reaffirmed throughout the cases involving this.

We done here, 'Fo sho?


Using my Olympic Slogan in a debate on NSG? Wow, nice flamebaiting attempt, want a cookie? And once again, I want to look at specifics; I don't want to adhere universally to broad and general principles. Now that you've been informed, use my Olympic Slogan, (which I've never used on NSG, and only used for RPing purposes,) again, in a mocking fashion, and you will be reported.

Harkonna wrote:Not even just stupid! Moronic. Yum. The reason I don't humor the babbling of people who have proven themselves to be the constructors of idiotic arguments and painfully obtuse theoreticals, is because it's tedious, aggravating, and ultimately pointless. As, instead of sticking to their argument after it's been shot down, they look to the next page in their handbook, and parrot out the next line of nonsense.

You know, like a parrot.

Look at my funny looking emote;

:V ~ BAWK EYE EM PERROT!


Harkonna wrote:'Fo sho's point, is apparently that we all have the right to hold different opinions.

What he doesn't get, is that whether his opinion on whether a law is stupid or not, has no bearing on court proceedings.

That about right, 'Fo sho?


All of these posts are on the same page: viewtopic.php?ns=1&f=20&t=192881&p=10369925

Not sure if actionable, but can we at least get a cool down notice?

If what I've been doing is flamebaiting, I'd appreciate knowing about it. I definitely know it's ridiculing, and patronizingly mocking people who make extremely poor arguments ... That it is, 'fo sho.

(As for my usage of 'Fo sho (For Sure, in a horrible accent), it really "Can't Be Helped(TM)-" as it's too good of a pun to leave unspoken.)

You were informed that it was my Olympic Slogan, after you initially made the pun. Despite that, you still kept on going. Here are a few other posts by you, made in July:

Nice strawman you've got here, you wannabe troll. Sod off.


I repeat; sod off.


I stated on the first page that is guy is a numpty attacking a strawman. This is still true. Can we just get to the part where we shun him and say mean things?


PPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPFFFF- HAHAHAHA. No.


Oh, it's this thread again.

It's a ball of flesh and jelly that could potentially become a human being. We have too many human beings on the planet already.

Get over it.


Aeravis is most likely a troll. I'd rather not declare any of the alternative conclusions that can be drawn based on their posts upon them.


I can't stop laughing about the above post. I can't. Oh wait. I just did. Damn. Sure was funny while it lasted.


... What? A township violates the constitution, and your recommendation is that people 'don't get uptight?' Are you just drooling bullshit out your ears or do we have a language barrier here?


Can't say I'm too surprised that you'd jump straight to that. Perhaps you're a little mad that someone isn't humouring you, and is instead actually calling you out on your utter nonsense?

Judging by these, I find hard to believe that your attempt was anything, except to flamebait me into writing a trollish response. I was going to let it go, after the first one, but you just kept going, leaving me two choices: troll or report. I chose the latter.

Good on you for making the right choice?

Plenty of delicious context you're cutting out of the threads, but the mods will be able to put things together. Yeah, I can be more than a 'little' mocking. I try to add a dash of humour to make things palatable.

Now, as for whether it's flamebaiting. Sure, I suppose. I'm making statements that rudely point out the fact that the people posting drivel, are posting drivel. Being told that what you're saying is nonsense is enough to make anyone mad, I would think. For example, listening to rubbish makes me mad. Should probably not go into threads like that, huh?

Silly of me.

On NSG we have rules and traditions of common courtesy. One of the traditions of common courtesy is that if a poster specifically asks you not to do something, you don't do it, unless it's relevant to the thread. I've been on NSG for several years, and seen all kinds of threads, and been in all kinds of threads. Usually when someone says: "hey, that's my Olympic Slogan that I use on NS Sports, please don't use it to flamebait me anymore" one would expect a person to stop using it. You kept using it, until I reported you, and courteously posted the link in the original thread.

And you know what? Two things happened. First, you stopped using my RP posts to bait me on NSG, and second, the thread suddenly calmed down. I even got a few TGs, and I'm glad that, what could have turned into a trolling nightmare, ended up becoming another semi-relaxed discussion.

Anyways, the main point is this: when someone asks you to stop baiting him on NSG with the comments that he made in one of his RPs comments, you stop. It's that simple. Now you claim that you had no idea. And arguably, the first time you didn't, even though I've yet to see anyone on NSG use that, and it's been almost six years. I still remember Jolt. But the second time you went ahead and used it, you left me no choice. If I was to walk away, my RP comments would be fair game on NSG, and that would set a bad precedence, not just for me, but for everyone who uses RP forums and NSG.


Harkonna wrote:You don't own the accented statement "'Fo Sho." (For Sure). It's not "Yours."

I haven't looked at your RP posts, I've never seen you RP, and I came up with the mocking statement by messing around with the beginning of your name. That's all I have to say that's relevant to this thread.


I'm not claiming that it's mine. I was asking you not to use something that I use an my Olympic slogan on NS Sports, in a mocking fashion against me on NSG. You opted to keep doing it, after being informed that it was my Olympic Slogan on NS Sports.

I'm sorry about the edit, but I just wanted to clarify that, without bumping a thread in moderation.

How about both of you keep quiet until a mod has time to look at this report?
