Really, I think that level of discourse is just inappropriate.

I yelled at 'em. Not seeing outright flaming, more pushing toward baiting and the usage of "sparg." If it continues, let us know.

Unless you are here to make a report, defend yourself from a report, or to offer worthwhile evidence in regards to a report, do not post in this thread. It is considered spamming moderation.

The Tomerlands, I was about to post something equally mild, but stopped to look at your forum warning history. You're on the very cusp of losing your nation due to inappropriate posts. You should probably refrain from posting at all until you've read and absorbed the One Stop Rules Shop. Or not, if you simply don't care that you're looking at an inevitable ban. Your choice.

Is this an appeal? In such a case, it would ease things if you indicated this.

Consider this an informative ruling.

Given our recent relaxing of the usage of "REEEE," we're going to similarly relax the usage of "sparg" - given apparently it has been ruled on previously in potential contradiction here. As such: the usage of "sperg" - a clear reference to "Asperger Syndrome" - remains trolling. The usage of "sparg" or similar will be treated based on its context of usage; such is to say that: in a circumstance where "sparg" may be used disparagingly as a pejorative, expect to be smacked for trolling or flaming; if it is used in a self-referential or self-identifying manner, that is entirely different.

Do not use "sperg." Do not use any terminology intended to flame or troll. Self-identification or self-reference to "sparg" is acceptable, unless it is used in a flaming or trolling context.

Apologies for any confusion this may have caused. The portion of my ruling relating to "sparg" will be struck.

When will USS Monitor get their long-overdue 3 day ban for just saying sperg like how I got for banned for it.

If you want to report something, report it. If you want to appeal something, appeal it. Otherwise, see above and leave the snark at the door; this is a report thread, and your bad faith is entirely unnecessary.
