Eh. He's a douche, but I don't think we should do anything about this one.

I meant to report Sleeper's post in that thread, but they do both go against the rules outline in Justin's post.

Yeah, tough call. I mean, it's a lighthearted comment, but they're definitely trolling. I think if we moderate too much stuff like this, people will get annoyed. I'll try to keep an eye on the thread to make sure nothing worse comes out, but as it is, I would vote to let this slide.

Anyone else care to weigh in?

Yeah, if it was a one time thing. It's an ongoing thing that is pretty annoying due to the fact that I have actually had people PM me because of people saying things like that. It adds nothing to the thread and was specifically outlined in Justin's thread
We've added two new rules (outside of the basement), as well. Do not follow other members around to harass them. A few examples being the "CC is a pedo" and "LJ is the expert in everything."

Good point. I'll edit the posts but otherwise not warn/infract. Does that seem reasonable to you?

Pretty sure sleeper needs an infraction since he has multiple for it in the past

Anyone else want to weigh in on this? I'm on the fence about it.

With how Justin made it part of the rules to not stalk posters (re: what LJ posted), I'd think that it should be infracted, considering Sleeper still does basically do this repeatedly.

Besides, it's Sleeper. Dude's needed muzzled for a long-ass time.

Agreed. This was an issue in the past and we specifically had to address this exact shit

Fair enough. Any of you guys want to volunteer to give the infraction? LJ probably shouldn't since he's involved in the thread, and I probably shouldn't either, since I gave sleeper his last infraction.

Should we at least state that this is an example of stalking a poster? It shouldn't need said, but it seems like examples would help most posters better understand what the rules mean by giving examples.

Fair enough. Figured it might make life easier.

Reps coming for your avatar.

No, no one has handed this out yet. Anyone want to volunteer to do it? As I stated above, LJ and I probably shouldn't be the ones to do this because of concerns about bias, but anyone else is fair game.
