IOW, you don't get to pick and choose who or what posts in any thread, regardless of who started it, so how about you stop acting like you do?

This post is so retarded I don't even know how to reply to it.

You're nothing if not consistent, you blithering fuckwit.

I would strongly suggest checking the line you're choosing to take, penguin. I cannot stress that strongly enough.

And what line is that?

If you want to tell me I'm close to breaking some rule maybe you should either explain to me which rule I'm disrespecting, post a mod notice, if you still have those, PM me about it, warn me, ban me or otherwise take some official action instead of blurring the line between posting as a user and a mod at the same time while taking a rather thuggish attitude towards me. My telling him he shouldn't have posted didn't come from a place of authority since I hold none here, and so he can very well ignore me, yet yours telling me I can't tell him that comes rather close to being authoritarian, besides missing the point completely.

Well, you could start by not telling an Admin how to do his job.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

And what line is that?

The line where you chose to respond to a more-or-less friendly reminder that you're stepping over a line without making it an official thing by calling that reminder "retarded".

You might also try being less of an asshole occasionally, but that's just a personal opinion.

Because we are prone to anger, and you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup.

Basically, that.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

Are you authorised as admins to threaten me like that?
