I'm going to return breifly here, just for a moment.

Firstly: One of the key rules to remember when playing games, is to limit yourself to 2 posts per page. Otherwise, two people online at the same time can spam a game thread for 5-6 pages. Yes, it has happened before.

Secondly: Benbo, you WILL respect what a moderator says on these forums. GoneWacko is a DAMNED good moderator, and you have NO right to start talking back like you own the place. Even if GoneWacko wasn't a moderator, he still deserves respect, because he has been contributing to this community for far longer than you ever will.

I really get sick of people entering a community, and deciding to throw their weight around becuase they are a big man. I love this community, and most of the people involved with it, because we are all equal, and we respect each others opinions and such forth. However, there comes certain times when moderators/admins/patch devs/graphics artists/coders/etc need to step up and use their authority. Obviously, it would be ideal if we all got along so that that never needed to happen, but it does happen once in a while, and this is one of those cases.

Benbo, I'm going to hand down a warning, because you deliberatly tried to instegate a public fight with a moderator, and generally caused a disturbance.

By all means, you don't have to agree with everything, or indeed anything that a moderator does, however there is a correct way to address that, by taking it up with them via PM. If this proves to be insatisfactory, then you may contact an admin (in this case, orudge), to try to get a solution. Acting the way you did is inexcusable, and complete rubbish.

If you can't follow the rules and respect those put in place to maintain those rules, then you shouldn't be part of a community. Sad, but true.

I hope you learn from this, and can become a positive member of the community. You have a bit of work to do though, as this isn't the best way to start.

Sorry Raichase. I didn't mean to start a riot here. I wil try to fit in a bit more, and I like the idea of a limit of 2 posts a page.

I agree to what you've said, and I didn't mean to throw my 'weight around'. :roll:
