I told some guy off today for being a complete ass with smart-licked comments to some guy posting  on the WAR forums and he sends me this.

 

 

"Hey, I reported you for calling me a douche. Just thought I'd welcome you to the internet.

Cheers."
 

Whats this world come to when little kids, or sadly grown adults, cannot take being called a douche?  Oh the thin lines people walk.

 

The point I want to get out people is that you should treat others as you want to be treated, the Golden Rule as some people might remember.

if it makes you feel better the mods here dont take too kindly of users reporting people for trivial things.

I believe the mods here don't take it too kindly either. Heh.

As do I.

I have been succesfully reported for calling someone a "Fanboi".

 

As the "reporter" of the OP of this topic, I felt it was necesarry, that's all it's done.

 

Why are you still whining?

 

EDIT: "The point I want to get out people is that you should treat others as you want to be treated, the Golden Rule as some people might remember."

Don't call people "douches" and you won't get what you deserved.

Seems a bit pathetic. If people can't handle being called a douche on the internet, what hope have they in real life?

So the chicken comes to his own shooting.

 

Don't whine about being called a douche, then i wouldn't have to whine about kids being upset over petty words.

I thought you blocked me because you couldn't stand being reported?

 

EDIT:

I couldn't honestly care less that you called me a name. I just felt no need for the comment to have come out of the bag. I honestly just wanted someone to lose a star. That's all.

If it's ok to you to put someone down with name calling. Then you should have just let it go when you read that persons comment, because you should have found it funny. No, you had to reply to him and call him a name. You know what, this is like grade 1 material.

 Errr... what?

You don't care, but still you reported him, just to see him lose a star?

If so, the OP was right from the beginning about you.

There is a war going on for your mind.

Welcome to one of the oldest forms of griefing on the forums.  I've been a victim of it myself.

 

Some people aren't able to retort ably to a comment, or know that they've been roundly beaten.  So instead of taking their lumps and learning from them, they will report to a moderator.  This is the same thing as the kid who got called poopy pants or some such, and went crying to teacher. 

 

It's a hit or miss situation, sometimes the reporter gets lucky and gets the person banned.  Other times, very very very rarely the reporter will get slapped on the wrist for wasting a moderators time.  It's my wish that the latter happened more often than the former.  But, I don't think it will ever happen.

Funny too when the person that complained about being called the petty name tells you to grow up. Too funny.

Sorry to hear that you have been a victim of it.

I find the narrowness of your opinion refreshing.

Well in the end, everything said and done, I wouldl like to say.....fuck you all.

Die unheilgeschwängerte Nacht zum 19. November 1942 ist hereingebrochen.
Stille liegt über dem Land. Nur die Stimme aus Moskau hämmert unermüdlich, monoton.
Alle sieben Sekunden stirbt ein deutscher Soldat.
Stalingrad: Massengrab!
