Scratch

When online, always remember the golden rule: Don't feed the trolls. Of all the things to remember, remember that. If you fight back, the troll wins. There is no arguing with a troll, or a hater for that matter. Just ignore them, and report/flag the post.

And don't forget making use of the almighty Contact Us link. 

Ah, I know who you're talking about! Me. However, I think you are in a big overreaction over this. I am not being a troll, and you weren't being a troll. It was a rather small argument. When I got in my first misc. argument I made something similar to this that was foolish and immature. You grow out of it eventually.

And I I think I know where this is stemming from.

You'll noticed I dustbinned the entire argument (and I would suggest both of you not to resurrect it again). I left a message to the Scratch Team to look over the arguments and sort out the matter.

ok thanks    it shouldn't be a big problem really. (although I suppose I'm gonna get another admin message or something)

From what I've seen, most argument cases result in all parties involved getting a message. I don't know about that since the case is out of my hands and each case is unique.   

I am surprised that no one reported it, though. [Do people really not make use of the "report" button? Everyone here should be familiar with how the report button works already considering that they all have "Scratcher" status].

I didn't consider it a big enough problem to report, neither of us were really getting vicious.

I usually prefer stuff being nipped in the bud right away (from experience, lengthy arguments, regardless of who started it, are usually a sign of trouble). It spares the forums from a potential flame war later on.

Hey Cheddargirl, thanks again for sorting it out. Mods are so helpful. I think that since we sorted it out and contacted the ST, you can close it now. And also, please nobody troll this post and say that you don't bump a topic to close it because that is mean and I've gotten those trolls before.

Actually, you hit the "report" button to have a moderator close this topic, you don't bump it. That is probably why you keep getting flak over it.

Since I saw the post, I'll go ahead on close, but for future reference: report, don't bump.
