"We're off the books. Scribbled on the backside of the constitution in lemon juice."

"There is a problem with your statement.   The constitution is, and has been since the beginning, in the digital medium.  Therefore, lemon juice is something that cannot be applied to it without frying several electronics.  Furthermore, there is no 'back' to the Constitution due to its medium.  As such, I must believe that you are speaking metaphorically, and it is hidden in the code of the page it is, and has remained, on.  Through usage of the Inspect Element function of the Google Chrome browser, I have seen that there is no hidden text within the code of the Constitution.  As this is true, then that means that your organization does not have the backing of the Constitution, and holds no power over the forum or its members.  What say you Furturka?"

(OOC: The Guidelines do mention about the spamming of large images, so can people use [img height=75] to replace the [img] tag for the 'avatars' and [img height=150] for evidence?  This is mostly to prevent the thread from being taken down from overuse of large images, as well as making it a bit more readable in general.  If you are concerned about detail, then clicking on the image restores it to its full height.)

((That guideline specifically excepts forum games where large images make sense in context. The readability argument is a good one, though, so I'll do just that.))

Good sir, this is simply not the case. If you will review these below posts, you will see that the capital letters do nothing to add to any sort of persona, and instead are merely an affront to our common language.

I FEEL WE SHOULD HAVE MULTIPLE COUNTRIES, AS JUST ONE NATION IN MESO-AMERICA ISN'T ENOUGH FOR MORE THINGS TO DO THAN THE LAST MAP. AND ALSO TO REPRESENT THE TRIBES AND CULTURES OF THE LAND ACCURATELY.

BASICLY, MAKE THE MAP A REGION, NOT A STATE.

THEY WILL FIT THE SETTING, THIS ISN'T YOUR FATHER'S SCYTHERS.

These are merely his most recent three posts. If you dig further I'm sure you will agree with me that the majority of his use of capital letters has been OOC, and in fact he only seems willing to use lower case letters IC. This sort of behavior is, as was noted by mister IcyTea, prohibited by a document which we all agreed to abide by upon joining this fine forum, as it does nothing other than aggravate and confuse.

What I see here is a moving of goalposts. My client was sued under the CLA of 2015, not the constitution. If charges under the Constitution want to be brought, it's another matter entirely.

However, I will argue that no one has standing to sue in this Court on the basis of the Constitution. The opening lines of the Constitution state that

These are the general guidelines for the Bay 12 Games forum.  If you violate the guidelines, you will be warned, muted for a period of days, or banned completely, depending on how disruptive you were and your prior history.

If you find a post that violates one of these guidelines, please report it with the "report to moderator" button located to the lower right of the post.

It is fairly clear that it is ToadyOne, and not the Court, which is responsible for the enforcement of the Constitution. As such, this would be outside the Court's jurisdiction.

Urist, exactly how many counts of caps-lock-using are you charging poketwo with?

[BlitzDungeoneer]

"If we are to assume that the figures of '9 in 50 posts are not capslocked' are accurate, then according to my calculations, that would be approximately 2248 counts of capslock, rounded up."

:................."I FUCKING NEW IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HONER!!!! At this time, it seems to be that this ones motive is clear!!!!!!!!! Instead of going after my RTD posts and such, he seems to be going after a specific target.......... OF A GAME THAT I'M PARTICIPATING IN!!!!!!!!!!!!!! As I have stated before, he has a definite dislike of me due a certain map game the said game is a squeal to......DUE TO ME TRYING TO PUT SCYTHERS IN THERE!!!!!!! AS YOU HAVE HEARD, I ALSO HAVE A CURSE THAT AFFECTS ME IN LOWER BOARDS TO DO POSTS OUTSIDE OF RPING AND () TO BE IN CAPS!!!! I have far more control over this than........ others. But still, the point is that THIS URIST IS TRYING TO PREVENT ME FROM POSTING ON THE FANTASY MAP GAME,  TO STOP ANY SCYTHERS FROM GETTING ON THE MAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HE IS SUEING ME TO PREVENT FREE SPEECH!!!!!

I would also like my lawyer to dig into my posts, and look for the ((   )) in some. And also, I will point to another post before 12.am"

I charge poketwo for trying to insert Scythers into a game even after the game's rules explicitly forbids insertions of Scythers.

[NJW2000]

Seconded. Stomp on the annoying green insect.

Wow. Zero to corrupt in 9 days. Impressive.
