By "adapt" I assume you mean banging the rtm button on every post you disagree with, frivolously hoping to prompt the mods to issue points. Sorry but that's not my style.

Someone else can issue the points here. I’d advise y’all to keep the discussion civil in the future.
#3 - Disrespect to others, IN GENERAL, will be considered an item of low tolerance, especially when posting in our coed forums. Follow the Golden Rule and treat others as you wish to be treated yourself. This applies to fellow members as well as staff. We do not require that you have respect for us, but we do require that you treat us respectfully in the public forums. If you feel the need to vent, gripe, or blow off some steam regarding a staff member's action or decision, we ask that you keep it private. Email, RTM, or the PM system would be the appropriate avenue to take in such cases. In cases where you would like to request additional clarity about a staff decision, you are free to pursue an answer in either a public forum or private means of communication. If handled publicly, post your inquiry in a respectful manner. Originally Posted by Wakeup

The following is not permitted on the site:
Insulting Others
Targeting other members for attacks
Harassing other members, groups of members, class of members, etc
Disrespecting other members on the site
General rudeness toward other members on the site
This includes staff and membership alike

wtf, you could have worded your post #21 better (preface your quote with a clarifying statement at the beginning of your quote) and prolly wouldn't get pointed. Mods can take that meme the wrong way if not applied properly.I quoted Ellen and asked wu the question.
you have to be careful with moderators. its like walking on eggshells. Originally Posted by dilbert firestorm

Oh and nice play on words by putting my handle in the title....I remember when a poster get (sic) pointed for continually doing that...

Any other infractions, I’ll be more than capable of enforcing as usual. Originally Posted by Wakeup

I have absolutely no fear of anyone here. I’m not involved in any decision concerning you in this thread at this point, so I cannot have made an incorrect decision. If you’d like to take any perceived grievance up with Staff, I’d suggest you do it in private, as it certainly won’t get dealt with out here.

You should have just pointed them for being disrespectful,which they were imho. But you didn't and now this Mod I never heard of came to the rescue (belatedly) and mistakenly thought I had posted that post that Austin Ellen posted and I reposted. That is not your fault, that is his. And now he seems like he is to damn stubborn to admit his mistake.
For the rest of you, my point is the same now as it was then. Moderators are not encouraged to issue infractions to members who disrespect them. They leave that to other Staff. They’re taken out of the process to avoid any impropriety. Originally Posted by Wakeup
