I'd like to submit an objection, as that was a wholesome comment rather than an attempt at flaming -- something to be expected at the thread's usual atmosphere. Not to say that this is a known friendly meme, not any less cheeky than the typical ":^)" smiley.

A "known friendly meme?" I call bullshit but you can have your appeal.

Appeal denied. There's no way that a casual observer could be expected to interpret "ok retard" as anything other than a personal attack. Whether or not it's a "friendly meme" is irrelevant; not everyone is familiar with every meme, which ought to be reason enough not to use memes that would appear to be flames to anyone not familiar with them on a board where flaming is prohibited. It's not rocket science.

More flaming in the Thread?

Because it reminds you of your heart you libertarian scum?

I'm pretty sure calling someone scum is flaming.

No need to act on my behalf, I brush off this sort of thing.

Yes, GM did edit it but in the correct manner, by using strike-through to show what was changed.
