First, I'm not Mike. I'm Rich.
I never said anyone was breaking any rules. There have been people getting close to the line, but we typically give leeway especially in situations like this.
This is not true.
Unless these is a post I am not aware of in which case I apologise, I've never seen the OP specifically target you as a troll.
I'm not going to enforce my opinions or beliefs by moderating posts to conform to those. When I moderate, I do so in what I believe is best for the site. When discussions get derailed or off topic or insulting, is usually when we step in. I won't moderate something for the simple reason that I disagree with it.
You weren't given a warning. I would never warn someone or moderate someone in a public post for everyone to read. Moderation is done through the boards software and or PMs.
I simply posted an opinion in an on going discussion. Not every post I or a moderator makes is an "official" declaration. These would typically be done in private PMs or an announcement of a change to site rules.
If you believe any post is against the rules, there is a report post link above every post to report it so it can be looked at.
