I haven't complained about forum warnings because who cares but my most recent one is funny enough to post about.

In a flood thread, I quoted someones post, replaced the text, and posted a funny video, a quote that looked almost exactly like so;

deranged unhinged rant

Or something to that effect. Maybe mentally unhinged rant. Whatever the case, that's the entire post. No specific life issues brought up, no specific illnesses listed, nothing. The person in question? Never spoken to them, only seen their sane and stable death threats and doxing attempts, and even admitting on the forums they were trying to sic police departments on people in different countries because they were being 'slandered' on a forum for a 21 year old game.
Pretty sure in the last 5 years I've never shared a Discord server with them, or even see them in game. Kind of a weird hill to die on though, jumping to the defense of someone like that from my low intensity prodding.

What I'm getting at is, what the hell is this warning?



You thought my message was malicious, then decided to confirm to someone you assume to be malicious that the person in question actually does have mental problems? I have no knowledge of any of their IRL issues, nor did I knowingly reference anything. But you did let me know they're real. Did you really think this warning through? Was it even worth a warning?

I'm not here to contest the warning, I'd get warned for breathing if you could find a way to mental gymnastics your way into it. Just thought you might want to consider some amount of, how do we say, tact? before you tell your supposed malicious actor that someone they might be targeting is in fact mentally unwell.
