But that’s not what you accused me of, lustylad. is it?

You claimed I admitted doing something, which I didn’t do. The claim was either mistaken or a lie. Originally Posted by Yssup Rider

Or get "upset" that wakeup didn't crack down, as you are described in post #148?

Don't beat around the bush.

I don't give a rat's ass which "side" is calling out the hypocrisy. They should be free to do so without anyone deeming the comparison off-topic.

You can argue false equivalence, just don't call it an infraction of the rules. Originally Posted by lustylad

You have a slightly valid point, but that is not what would get someone points. Or at least not from what Wakeup has stated. We both know who is the expert at getting threads off topic. His name is Prescriptive Grammarian but his friends call Mr.Pedant. So I suggest using some of his post as an example of what not to do. If you find yourself obsessed with Grammar or typos. Or a penchant to manipulate the meaning of a word. I would say it would be best to step away from the keyboard.

Problem solved.

If someone writes in a way that it is unclear what they said I can see asking them to clarify. Trying to win the argument over punctuation is something a child would do.

^^^ That was pretty clean. Keep posting like that and people may focus on substance instead of your grammar.

And I understand folks that do not care for my opinions jumping on the bandwagon, But I could find mistakes on a few post daily, yet I never see him call anyone else out on it. My fault would be letting him digress the topic into oblivion. Thanks to Wakeup he will no longer have that option.

This is just a little reminder folks. We went a few weeks with very little issue, and then a couple members returned and things backslid quite a bit.

There have been a lot of infractions issued lately, and I’d prefer it if y’all would police yourselves a bit more. I don’t want to have the system ban you, but if that’s what it takes, then that’s what will happen. I’ve even given a couple of you a personal warning that a ban could have been issued already, in hopes that you’ll fix it. This forum is no longer what it was, and the guidelines apply to everyone the same. Remember that going forward.

Thanks folks.
Why don't you post a list of pointable terms or phrases in this thread? Especially if you want us to "police ourselves?"

That way it's easier to understand what you consider your interpretation since you've already admitted that your interpretation is the only one that matters?
