Wait wait, Unown Lord...if Geoffrey has blocked you, how do you expect to address him directly to any real ends?

The only person to have done that was Nando, who offered no insight into the nature of his complaints. Furthermore, his complaints have not been addressed to me on account of being dismissed by the moderators. Had he addressed them directly to me in the first place, I could have been made aware of his qualms and perhaps come to realize his point of view. For some reason, he thought that he could accomplish that by filing a complaint, which is clearly the wrong way to go about solving the problem.
The same goes to you, Geoffrey. How on earth do you expect to bring about a change in my attitude if you portray it as bashing, which it most certainly is not?
I hope you realize that my having put you on my ignore list by no mean constitutes as an excuse for your course of action. You forced me to do that by not only insinuating that you had already blocked me, but by also declaring that everyone else should do the same. You are not an innocent bystander - quite far from it.
I have never been approached by any moderator on any of my posts. That includes any posts I recently posted that you perceived to be rude.If it "certainly is not", then why were arguing with another mod about it? I know it wasn't bashing, but you were still being very rude. If you weren't, such an incident wouldn't have happened.
You are not fooling anyone; this is not the proper way to ask someone to be nicer. You can do better than that.I just want you to make your posts less forceful and more friendly, and, open-minded, and respectful. Is that too much to ask?

We had an admittedly heated debate about Platinum and Rotom's alternate forms. Is that no longer permitted on a Pokémon forum?So you didn't have an incident with GrnMarvl13 in the Platinum Discussion Thread about the way you spoke to others?

GrnMarvl13 did not exercise his authority as a moderator at any point during the debate.
His reason for blocking me was personal: he had no interest in getting into further debates.
If you feel the same way, go ahead and put me on your ignore list. It is rare that I get into serious debates, and it takes two to tango. I will say that I intend to refrain from having my discussions escalate into debates, but only because I don't feel it it is a good way for me to spend my time on the forum.
We now interrupt this serious discussion with something to make us chuckle:
Honestly, can't we all accept that personalities clash and continue with our lives?
And yet you came here today to do just that, dragging the admins into a lot of past subjects in which you really had little interest, all so that you can focus your attention on how rude you think I am. I am here to let you know that you can either ignore me or politely ask me to avoid engaging in future debates; anything else won't get your problem solved.If you feel that it's not a good way to spend your time, then why do you bother coming here? If you have something better to do in your life, why not go do it? It's not like I come here every day to remark or complain about something.
Some people define nice differently. As I said earlier (ignored), I find Unown Lord to be a perfectly acceptable member of the rule abiding community.
EDIT: On second thought, no... not the same token,buddy.

But I will make life easier on you: With Platinum released, it is unlikely that I will post much from now on until another game is rumored or announced to be in development. When that happens, I will likely take recent events into consideration and conduct myself in such a way so as not to instigate debates.
It will not, however, be a courtesy to you.
You know, I think it's about time you (Unown Lord and Geoffrey) move this to a private discussion. I don't want this to turn worse than it already has been at some points.
Edit: ROFL at Paperfairy's post.
