Marley, I do think this was one of those times to let things slide. You knew full well where Frank was coming from. The answer to “snort” should have been “right” or something to the effect of “I saw you but didn’t care”. Escalating it only gathers the crowd of rubberneckers and derails the thread.
Also, this:
is not language for someone under a mod hat. “Knock it off” is retarded and arrogant. I really wish you mods will “knock it off” with it. It never ever serves to defuse a situation, and isn’t that what you guy want?
Frank, c’mon, you know full well what rule covers “snort”, and you know full well that it is a rule applied on the “we know them when we see them” stick without any need for the mods to excuse or explain themselves. You simply have no recourse against a mod’s whim. There is no point in fighting him.
I have begun to like you since you quit and Marley is high there on my (and everyone’s) list of disliked mods (and I hate it that saying so gives him mod-points), but that is no excuse to chase him around PALATRing him.
It is not like he never gets pitted, save it for one of those.
Unless you are wanting a flame out, then rock on, baby!
