If you want to dig up links demonstrating that **Czarcasm** is a thread-shitting asshole, go ahead. Just justify why its a bad thing on your own terms, without reference to whether or not the post violated a board rule. Even if you post a neutral “cite” to the rules, you’re inviting the other party to explain why his behavior was not or should not be covered under that rule, and someone else jumps in to say why that poster is wrong about that rule, and someone else says the rule doesn’t make sense in the first place, and the next thing you know, North America is an irradiated wasteland populated by mutants fighting over expired cans of Fancy Feast.

In short:

“Here’s where you brought up nonsense that’s unrelated to the OP, which is why you’re an asshole,” is fine.

“Here’s where you brought up nonsense that’s unrelated to the OP, and here’s the warning you got for it, which is why you’re an asshole,” is what I’m trying to avoid here. And the converse applies, too - “There’s nothing wrong with that post because I didn’t get a warning,” is also out.

Basically, act as if whatever it is you’re accusing **Czarcasm** of is completely okay by the standards of the board, and you should be okay.
