You know... I have found, in my years here at TOL... just as a general rule, mind you... that if I report someone else's post, it's usually best to not use vulgar profanity and name-calling in my explanation of what is wrong with that post (especially one that does not have profanity or name-calling, itself!) :doh:

Yes.....I can't really imagine anyone else doing so really....I wonder if Lighthouse has ever reported a post himself? :think:
So? He shouldn't have reported a post that didn't break the rules.
Did you know that not every violation of rules ends up with an infraction or banning. Sometimes the staff says tone it down, or some other warning.
Or a get out of free jail card for one time use.
How is it even relevant if I've reported posts before? I report posts that break the rules, right? Arthur clearly doesn't use his Brain.

I just saw that lightbringer had reported me.
And he was trying to come across as so mature, he was following me from the way I saw it but I didn't report that, though it's against the rules.
Oh my!

I would have presumed as much given I used to be a moderator on a different forum myself. I was simply stating an opinion. I've not felt inclined to report any posts since joining and the fascination with mocking those who do is pretty.....lame. Still, each to their own. :e4e:
Really? It's not about mocking people for reporting posts. It's about mocking them for reporting posts that don't break the rules.

Is that supposed to make it any the less lame? Does anyone care? I found Stripe's latest report to be pretty laughable considering his own dialogue and the reasons he had for reporting. He was as guilty as Jukia for any inanity or 'disrespect'. How come you didn't mention that one? Selective are we? This is why I don't bother reporting posts. I'd sooner handle any disagreements in open threads. Btw, I must be off your ignore list! Or have I just put myself back on it......
:dizzy: That does not matter, you should be inclined to do so, lame or not! :Clete:
