I know he's a high rep member and so many will let him get away with it; however, this is way over the line.

It could be read as strong but is also presented here out of context which seems to support the rhetorical point being made.

I understand that that forum is self-patrolling; don't bring your complaints here. And don't go in there if you can't take it. I never do.

That's exactly what Spam and Abuse forum is for.

Ya, because his opinion is so important to my self image.

You're probably thinking of Soapbox 1.0, which does have a forum admin even though they never do anything.

The words "inappropriate for this forum", are open to interpretation.

And exactly that's what happening here - we interpret

But the:
Do not post anything offensive
and the:

are actually quite clear.
When you go to some countries you are asked in the immigration form "Do you have intention of..." Terrorism or illegal acts. If you say no and afterwards you do make something they have more charges against you.
What (for me) in this case... The previous sentence of that post actually proves being done fully on purpose. And that doesn't make it less punishable.
BTW... I am not defending RyanDev I am just being honest with my opinion.

Agree 100%. But this was way over the line, IMO.
But as you all have proved, because he is a high rep member, no one cares.

Not true, we just do not think that it is as big an issue as you do. If you really want something done about it then a private email to Chris is probably the way to go.

Looks like you missed the previous line:
MM wrote:
I will put a quote at the bottom of the post, that has nothing to do with the discussion just so you can focus on it so you can have something to have a go at.
In other words, the one line you've quoted out of context was put there to wind you up.
And it obviously worked, since you're now calling for a member to be kicked off the site for a single line in a single post. Something which you have always objected to when the abuse was not aimed in your direction.

Even if it was with that purpose, it doesn't make it less offensive.

Seems so, yes.

In which case, I'd take your previous advice, report the message, and move on. You'd have to do better than that for me to report your account here.
RyanDev wrote: You've proven that rules don't apply to high rep members.
You mean the high-rep member who currently holds the record for being kicked off the most times in one day? The member whose previous profanity created the whole "elephant" and "sunshine" meme in the Lounge?
RyanDev wrote: Wrong. You're specifically referring to times when ...
Oh, good. I'm glad you know better than me what I'm referring to.
