Because, as a board participant, I’ve seen that grammar somewhere before …. ; )
I must say, I'm surprised that you're acting this way as a moderator. You're making feel like I need to defend myself. Is that how a moderator should make a board member feel? I'm trying not to be rude or cheeky, but the constant belittling is offensive, especially from a moderator.
I should probably stay out of this, but, well, ... I'm surprised, in a way, that nobody has pointed this out to you - at least as a reply to this comment.
Mods on this board wear two hats: the "Mod" hat, and the "Member" hat. On this board, unlike some others, mods are visible.
When someone who happens to be a mod is acting as a mod, you can tell that this is the case by their use of red text - generally reserved for mod-as-mod use. It is also usually the case that they make it clear, by the language they use and the actions they take or suggest that they might take that they are in mod mode. If canpakes had said that s/he had seen that grammar before, and, as a result, was splitting the thread, that would also tell you that it was a mod-as-mod post.
When someone who happens to be a mod is acting as a member, you can tell that this is the case by their not using red text, and by their making comments that look just like the kind of comments that any other member might make.
Canpakes' observation above is clearly made with his member hat on: it's not an official mod-mode comment. As far as I can see there is no justification for complaining that a mod is going after you.
I could have made the comment that canpakes made. Would you have complained, or flagged the comment if I had made it?
