"Title edited for caps. Please read Rule 9."

I find it highly ironic that the mod sought to admonish me for capitalization in this thread, while replacing it with an incorrectly capitalized title.

Not so. It is correctly formed. If you're thinking the words preceded by linking dashes, there will be differences of opinion.

I am the mod that put the standard correction. It isn't an admonishment, and you are the first to so complain.

With such an inauspicious start, I think I can determine the Karenized culture of those in charge quickly and will take leave of it.
Get serious. Karen?? Nah. Are you a snowflake?

Thank you.

This is not a post, but a PM. No need to close the account, just don't open the site. Or after you've seen the light, please come back and post again.

The caps are wrong, and from what I can tell, from my post and others, moderation here is inconsistent, overreaching and overly pendantic.

We've got guys here talking about dick measuring contests, and that's fine, but new forum members are having posts amended and deleted for capitalization choices, or simple LOLs?

Major buzz kill already and I don't have time for that.

Sigh

Not a snit, it's simple:

1) Mod corrected a post that didn't need correction, and the mod's correction was itself incorrect.

2) I posted a simple LOL post on that.

3) The mod was so triggered he cancelled that post, and took me to task behind via PM, threatening "penalties" over a LOL.

4) I find this behavior to be silly, and also revalatory about the mod, and the culture he will allow here. Dick jokes OK, LOLs too risque.

5) There's no point in sticking around or sucking up to a guy like that. There's pipes to smoke and ladies to slay.

No hissy-fit here, just don't have the time to deal with pedantic, easily ego-bruised keyboard warriors who can't live with a little LOL.

Please just help me close and delete my account now, thank you.

You said you were leaving. I wished you a goodbye. You seem to resent such. Perhaps contacting a PM or Kevin in a PM and they can wipe you off the board cleanly if that's what you desire. I do have the feeling that we are being trolled. But, I may be wrong. bdw
That's what I'm hoping for. I figure if the mod can delete a LOL post, he should be able to cancel my account and wipe all my posts just as easily.
