I'm really fond of chocolate chip cookies. They're yummy! ^_^
Perfectly acceptable. 0 warning points given. Bar - February 10, 2005 02:20 AM (GMT)
Cookies are gay. I hate all cookies.
A little on the harsh side, but nothing bad going on here. Just sharing his opinion on cookies and isn't attacking anyone. 0 warning points given. Imbecile - February 10, 2005 02:20 AM (GMT)
Bar, you need to get it straight. Not only are cookies gay, but everyone who *likes* cookies is gay, and 'Ivan is exceptionally retarded for wasting everyone's time with such a <blocked> comment.
Ah, here we find the classic case of lack of respect for the individual. At this point, Imbecile would be privately warned. 1 warning point given. Defamatory - February 10, 2005 02:22 AM (GMT)
All cookies are made of is flour, sugar, and eggs. What's so special about that? My penis tastes better than your damn cookies.
Do you think you're original or something? Hey, get with the f***ing program. People have been liking cookies way before you were even born, you worthless piece of s*** biter. I should kick your donkey for what you said. Everyone who likes cookies should be shot, execution style.
Not only is our friend here being exceptionally vulgar, but he is also directly insulting 'Ivan for having an opinion that he happens to disagree with. Furthermore, he is beginning to threaten with violence (although most likely he will never approach our poor 'Ivan). 2-4 warning points given. Flamebait - February 10, 2005 02:23 AM (GMT)

Someone once told me that cookies were the food of the devil. That person is a <blocked>.
Tough call--see, he's not actually defaming anyone specifically. But the individual who made the comment is sure to come back, insulted just as if Flamebait had said his/her name. This is a definite no-no. 1-2 warning points given. Sneaky Flame - February 10, 2005 02:25 AM (GMT)
I'm not sure what you're trying to accomplish by insulting anyone who likes cookies. It's completely obvious to anyone who has half a brain cell that an individual's food taste is unrelated to their sexual orientation. That would be akin to calling anyone who liked a particular FE character a f***ing idiot. Someone disagreeing with you on an entirely subjective issue is no reason to claim that that individual is lacking intelligence. In fact, such a claim would only damage your own credibility, as it implies that you have run out of logical comments to back up your own statements, and are instead resorting to immature name calling in order to save face.
Again, didn't directly insult anyone, but did manage to throw in a dig at Imbecile (who apparently has less than half a brain cell). Definitely a claim to flame here. 1-2 warning points given.
