Well then in that case, I am offended by your wanton use of sarcasm, and I expect an apology.That's exactly what it says.
The second part is in italics. It's sarcasm.
/Waits.

Okay? I think I'm okay with that.
It's not about balls. If I see people knocking stuff from a shelf onto the ground, I'm not going to try to tell them to knock it off. I'm going to let the people that run the store take care of it however they want to.
I agree, depending on the circumstances. If the people don't seem receptive, or if the people are out of control, or if it's understood that the protocol is that I shouldn't be trying to take care of things, or etc. etc. etc., then I'm not going to deal with it myself.
On the other hand, I do prefer to work things out via dialogue and civil discussion, as I've indicated -twice- in this thread. So if we can do that, either in real life or on the internet, then I'm down.

I don't plan to harass you. I also don't plan to change my behavior unless a mod asks me to.

So you do not expect us to change cause all of you non-mods asked?
I would note that jonesy and i are not talking about the same thing. I dont goto other rpg forums.
So my recommendation was really to not bring bad mojo from one thread to the next.
If somebodys dogging you because of who you are somewhere else, thats badwrong of them.
Any trouble a post you do should be isolated to that thread.
Each thread should try to start over unless you eatablish a serial pattern of bad posting
Thats my view

Taking this opening post as offered, I asked a question. Although no one answered my question directly, the ongoing back-and-forth throughout this thread has essentially answered it indirectly.Zombie_Babies said:
And for the record: I don't post on the WotC or CM boards, even under a different name. So all I know about anyone here is what I know from what and how they post here, good or bad.

Personal observation: You don't come across as weird. To be perfectly honest, to me, you come across more as crass and insensitive.
No, they don't *need* to. That may sound like a nitpick, but it might be an important point in terms of mindset. There are thousands of EN World users, and our basic operation style has worked for over a decade. The arrival of a few folks from the WotC boards does not create a "need" or onus for others to change how they approach things.
I'm sorry you see it that way. To us, it is merely a valuable tool in creating a particular atmosphere.
Yes, but that means you don't get to standardize EN Worlders into people who accept your preferred style, either.
That logic works if you only cheese off a couple of specific people. And, in fact, if only a couple of specific people report your posts, then we usually tell them to go use the ignore list. But, if we get reports from lots of different people, then it becomes more an issue that your style doesn't fit in with the rest of the place.

Yup, which is what I said, but Jonsey thought you said something else. I'm totally with you on this.
