[QUOTE="JiffyPopTart, post: 5522782, member: 4881"] You forgot waterboarding and black helicopters. I am a long-time member and non-prolific poster and have had a thread or two where I have posted something sarcastic enough that it might have gotten me a slap on the wrist. It's never happened though, as I always avoid outright attacks or insults. I think the mods do a great job of keeping the place on-topic as well as intelligent. I have seen evidence of a poster or two who is adept at walking the line between "fiesty" and "jerk" in many many threads and those are probably the folks you are referring to as the people who get away with things. Fortunately the mods have a good eye and usually only come down on those who cross the line, not just toe it. The one criticism that I have is that sometimes threads have been closed and locked that seemed like civil and valid discussions. I can't point to specific examples at the moment (as I am in a lull of ENworld forum reading at the moment) but I have noticed that the new mod commenting system has gone a long way to keeping these rare. Finally it might help some who are taking offense to the actual words the mods are using to remember that they aren't authority robots, but posters like you and I who have decided to contribute time and effort to making the boards a better place. They might have been saying things in a friendly joking manner, and that includes referring to people as jerks. DS [/QUOTE]
