Thread: Why use the warn button?

    Default

    Because it is easier and more legal than saying I am going to apply neo trace and come slit your throat, while still getting my point across. Until you realize the staff are usually too busy massaging their own erect egos to do anything or really care about it anyways, so you end up flaming back and getting in trouble despite the fact that the only way to finish a troll off is with acid or flaming, and flaming is free, where as acid is best used for tie-dying T-shirts.

    Warn button's a handy old feature, I use it whenever something nasty comes up. It can help to get stuff taken care of sooner, and it avoids the chance of the mods overlooking something serous. Also, when people use the button it lets the staff know that something's actually bothering them enough to want something done.

    I don't think I've ever warned a post. Seems pretty sleazy to me.
    Way to ruin our image ;_;

    Uh. Seeing as how no one but us secretive, tight-mouthed not-at-all gossipy staffers *cough* are the only one's to see the warned post, fear not spineless EoFFers. Your shame is safe with us.

    Signature by rubah. I think.

    Baldur's Gate is based on a campaign setting for D&D, that being Forgotten Realms, if I remember correctly.
