Since the words you quoted were ended with an emoticon [ :) ] - you seem to have left that out of your quote - and there was no abuse report or complaint made, I let it go. I have no idea what any of that has to do with my quoted remarks to CCWoody.

While we're in a questioning mood, though, did you attempt to register more than two new identities while you were under suspension?

For clarification, does this mean that all I have to do when I flame someone is put a little smiley face at the end and I'm good to go?

That "emoticon" can mean many things, such as "smugness" by the poster of that insult, and is open to subjective interpretation. A plain statement of it having been a "joke" would have made it clear, instead of a subjective "emoticon".

- and there was no abuse report or complaint made, I let it go.

That wasn't the question. I did not ask why you let it go.

I'll restate the query:

Does the following fit your criteria for being a "personal attack":

Sorry, your post contains only noise and ignored words. You are a miserable failure. I am deeply saddened.

Yes or no?

I didn't hit the "abuse" button, because I'm not a whiner like some who will go un-named.

Again does the following meet your criteria for being a "personal attack":

Sorry, your post contains only noise and ignored words. You are a miserable failure. I am deeply saddened.

Yes or no?

A simple yes or no answer is all that is required. Either it does or it doesn't.

It doesn't. What it has to do with is the criteria you use as a Moderator, and whether that criteria is dealt with evenhandedly.

Proverbs 11
1 Dishonest scales are an abomination to the LORD, But a just weight is His delight.
