Radix, I would agree with you, except that a precedent had been set that such "me-too" posts hadn't been getting anyone posts, and my agreeing that someone mentioning speed mods in 5th Mix arcade was pretty funny, wasn't out of the ordinary for such a post. It didn't really bother me though, because it was my first point, and I figured a fluke occurance.
And that's what I didn't like about getting two points for posting a "Request lock" is that the overwhelmingly prevailing precendent was that such posting was okay, but that PMing mod was prefered. I've already made this argument separately, but I'm using it as support for my argument that mods on this board tend to step greatly on the toes of forum members without thinking about it too much.
Remember the guy that started the BS philosophical thread over in Chit-Chat? Certainly, he deserved a point or two for it, but an insta-ban seems a bit extreme (unless there's part of the story I'm missing, of course). I mean, how many pointless threads slip by without a mod caring a wink? Why was this thread any different, besides the fact that tne n00b did a little flamebaiting and was full if himself?
I'm a little full of myself. Half the members on this board are full of themselves, I'd guess. Why did this one instance deserve a ban?

Oh, and Cutriss, am I to infer by your post that you read every single post I make, under some kind of flagged warning system? 'Cause that'd be awesome.

Heh. Sorry to let you down, but I have a set of 8 forums in a bookmarked tab group, and I just read the new posts in each one every time I load DDR Freak.
