I know if someone had called our attention to it three days ago, it would have been addressed. As it is, I'm going back and editing it out now, and thank you for the callout. If you see ANY violations, please report the post through the 'report a post' feature, and we'll look into it. We can't take action if we don't catch it amidst all that's going on in that thread.I couldn't say, but we DO contact people in private, too, especially if we can find them in preference to calling them out publically. Sometimes, people are being egregious about their behavior, and we don't catch them by e-mail, so we just have to jump in right then. In BelenUmeria's case, he had some pretty strong things to say, but in the mods' judgment he didn't cross the line.Not to sound sarcastic, but that's what disagreeing is about I guess. One of Belen's strong points is he can eventually give up on an argument and agree to disagree. He's done it with me a time or two in the past. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />I'd like to single this out:-----------------------------------------------------------------------A few personal words on this: "not paying homage" to some members is simply disagreeing or complaining; to others, "not paying homage" is name-calling, casting aspersions, and outright flaming. You should ALWAYS feel free to disagree with something here; but as long as disagree is "I disagree" or "it does nothing for me" or "I've been unimpressed with his opinions in the past and I'm unimpressed now," or "that's just plain incorrect and here's why," THAT'S not insulting, that's commentary. Most posters here won't be offended or defensive if the disagreeing doesn't get worse than that; if someone DOES insult you, curse you out, say rude things, etc. report it. If you are a member of this community, you have just as much right as Ryan D, Chris P, Monte C, Gary G or Tim D NOT to be insulted.And NEVER let that stop you from checking out the rest of the community. There are games here going on at all times (from Cthulhu, to Warhammer, to Castles & Crusades, et. al.) There are discussions of Movies and Books, there is schmoozing in the Off-topic, there's stuff going on that doesn't involve defending your favorite game from attacks and inaccuracies; these forums have their own different sets of discussions, and there's plenty to like. I know some people who play in the Play By Post forum here, and NEVER come out into the General or Rules forums. A friend of mine posts here in the Off-topic and the books & Movies, and ALMOST NO WHERE ELSE. Don't let a few people you disagree with spoil other avenues.Hope this answers a few questions.</blockquote>
