…because he can’t keep from becoming uncontrollably emotional in GD and received yet another warning. If he keeps it up he will be BANNED. Then he will whine and cry about he was BANNED because he was goring liberal sacred cows. Ignoring the fact that he will be BANNED because he’s too emotional to carry on a debate in a civil manner. What a self-important panty-knotted pansy. [Razorsharp, Great Debates is for debates.

Your italic on that ‘_I_’ll’ was a nice touch **Simon**. All things considered though, _I_’ve grown tired of **Razorsharp’s** constant hissy fits. ---

I’m wondering why **GomiBoy** didn’t get warned for saying, “This is dumb, even for you”, which started the shit slinging. ---

> [@John Mace](#): > > It’s not a direct insult. I can say “that was dumb”, but not “you are dumb”. Well, if you want to pick nits, **Razorsharp** didn’t specifically call **GomiBoy** names either. He referred generally to “limp dick liberals”. It seems the “even for you” part did turn it into a personal insult. IMO. If I posted (in response to something you wrote) “That was dumb, even for you”, wouldn’t you take it as a personal insult? Not that I am posting anything of the sort, as I have never seen you post anything dumb, but still… Regards, Shodan ---

Well, the mod’s note was “Moderator’s Note: Razorsharp, Great Debates is for debates. The BBQ Pit is for rants and flames and insulting people.” Could be either of the three, although it sure looked like RS all but admitted to trolling. ---

I like him enough to give him one. Fortunately, I don’t like everybody that much or I’d not have _any_ free time left for myself. ---

I predict he gets banned the next time he opens a GD thread. [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/rzorsharps-gonna-cry/272571.md?page=2)
