I'm pretty good with keeping my cool but I think more people jump on firing at the new people just because they're new. I highly doubt that if I were being attacked by an older member, no one else would hit the report button.
Well as I said, the report button is there for you to use it and bring the mods' attention to what you consider problematic behavior. It's up to them to rule on the issue in the end. I may be in the minority that actually uses it but I used to be a mod and would have appreciated it if more members had done the same. I figure it makes their jobs a bit easier.

As for what you think is and is not appropriate behavior, we obviously disagree, but as I said, it's up to the mods and I think they side with me on this one. You unnecessarily added fuel to the fire.

It just seems like it's easier to point the finger at new people and disregard the older members. In the thread last night, I saw two members fighting who weren't new members. Yeah, a few newer people made a few comments but it seemed in the end that the older members were easily forgiven for insulting each other but the newer people get the shaft. I even saw the idea thrown out that the new people "think they own the place". That's a pretty ridiculous statement. I'm certainly not here to own the place, I'm just posting the same as anyone else.

Meh, just an observation.
That would be me again. I just think it's rather backwards for you to try and establish yourself by being a cunt. I think first you need to contribute and prove yourself as a noteworthy addition in the music forums and then you earn the right to spew shit on other, older and therefore established members. None of that matters here though because you were being rude in an argument that didn't pertain to you, unlike the two older members (whose argument should have been stopped earlier, I agree), which is what brought me to the aforementioned conclusion of backward social climbing. Just my two cents of course...

If you had a problem with something I said, I'm sorry. It would have been nice if you'd said something to me about it before reporting me, that way if it could have possibly been a misunderstanding, I wouldn't be getting rodded unnecessarily.
You jumped on the Savannah dissing bandwagon, as your sig still shows. Unnecessary fuel to the fire, that's all.
