Spirited is fine but we have a policy that when you start harping and harassing one particular member or group we step in. That is what is happening here and it won't continue. If you guys want to talk about the OP's subject that is fine but get off of each other.
We razz our buddies in real life too. This thread seems mild compared to many others on here. It's called being snarky. You're even being a bit snarky in a Barney Fife kind of way.
Why not ask the alleged victims if they feel picked on, or if they're just busting chops before "providing direction"?
The Sandbox description also claims it's for humor. Busting balls and dark humor is still humor.
