    1. New fucktard hasn't read rules.

    2. This is not gravedigging I believe, wich is not against the rules.

    3. I have the delete user button.

    When I'm not busy typing, I can see a delete post button for things I've sent in. Sometimes.

    As for gravedigging...it's only gravedigging if after a period of a month or so a new response is posted in a topic that has nothing to do with the original "theme" of the thread. If a thread is six months or a year old it might be better to just start a new topic.

    Is this correct, or was I too liberal with the times?

    Far to liberal in my opinion, but unfortunatey I have not the power to enforce such a ruling (yet).

    The gravedigging rule seems to not really be enforced outside of the Arcanum Hints & Tips forum or the General Discussion. And even in those there are threads which are exempt.

    Wow. Well done. You have just made a fucking grave dig of five years. Your parents must be proud.

    I know. It almost look that way. But I was reacting to Slumbering, who's post suddenly was deleted. Now, it looks like I am talking to thin air. He made the same comment in Arcanum 2 discussion thread.

    There is a lesson to be learned here, isn't there?

    Dismissed.

    I know. You are right, but I just could not resist. I will pm DE or DF next time. Has anyone heard anything of The_Bob, yet?

    Well I really did it to be an ass, but Muro proves that I had a good point.

    I'm curious, what explicitly do you want to be notified about DF or DE? I wasn't sure whether Drog's most recent trolling attempt was worthy of anyone's notification as it was my understanding that Arcanum Discussion should be a troll free zone, but then I thought it was probably something an admin would discover sooner or later and I don't particularly like to hassle people over nothing. Inconspicuous spam is obvious, but it seemed like this was more of a grey area.

    Since I consider myself to do most of the day-to-day administration here, I'll respond.

    If a spambot/thread/post exists for more than 48 hours, pm me. I get notified of all PM's, and so I'll then deal with it. I'm here at least once in a 48 hour window, but work is busy at the moment, and I don't have the spare time I normally would.
