Elmer, Six time. You had your last warning. You're off for a month.

If you make it a habit to insult people by playing with words you simply can't expect to get away with it all of the time. They only result in more insults and more OT. Besides these results it strikes me as odd that you're letting it appear that you're sensitive to being insulted but are able to make insults to others easily.

Using the reactions you yourself solicited with your little word games you started accusing me of being a partisan. Accusing me is fine up to a point were repetition of the arguments exceeds 'prove' by a large margin, up to the point that your 'prove' has enough substance for which no reasonable counter arguments exist, and for as far as you are not a major trigger of the reactions you take issue with yourself; accusing me like this only leads to more insults and more OT too. I'm not allowing that to go on.

It was made plenty clear to you and now I draw the line as I said I would.

Regards,

Rink

Backwards:
12. Final bozo post ignoring the final warning (see also 11): Message 22951835
11. Last warning and fifth request to quit your quest. About bozo as well. Message 22950738
10. Fourth request. Subject 'bozo': Message 22950718
9. Third request. Subject 'bozo': Message 22950175
(8. Because of the discussion that followed the below I issued stricter moderation around terms like AMDroid and Intel Stooges. This possibly prevented further escalation around similar sensitivities as was made clear by TWY remarks about me not commenting on your tease. Message 22896141 )
(7. Cruzbay wondered why you weren't suspended for your tease refering to you as 'bozo'. I responded: 'I can't believe anyone would feel personally offended by this tease from Phud. If it becomes a regular pattern, or if it becomes too personal...' - (I wasn't entirely right as it turned out that some were offended): Message 22895576 )
(6. The initial trigger of the 'bozo'-discussion was your risky tease to JimM: 'An AMDroid or a normal brain?'. : Message 22895300 )
5. Second partisan related request. Subject was your prior statement that it's an insult to call Eracer 'Doug', see 4 and 3 below. There are btw more Dougs here than the aliases show. Message 22889001
(4. As a follow up of 3. you appologized to Eracer for the insult of calling him 'Doug'. This insulting word play on top of 3. got you suspended for two weeks. Message 22804427 )
(3. Your arguably unreasonable and insulting questions to Eracer: 'Is this [Eracer] just another Doug alias? Is there a limit to the number on the ignore list?': Message 22802949 )
2. My initial request not to start a quest against me siding with AMD fans in moderating. Subject is TWY calling you a liar over the misunderstanding if two double-core dies make a quad core, while you called AK a liar only two months or so before, and you accusing me of being a partisan because I let TWY get away with it. All personal offenses. : Message 22883857
(1. Petz on liar / partisan, also see 2. above: Message 22881621 )

There were many more posts + PM's with similar content. I allowed it for a long time as I was subject to your insults myself.
