Then why was the warning issued three hours later?
I am not Omnipresent..or Omniscient and someone can be busy for a length of time longer than 3 hours or shorter, not to mention I am sure you didn't reply within 0.000000001 seconds of me posting...

Who said I was complaining?
You're here challenging the issue? What else is complaining?

Yes, not only as a former GM, but as the section head for Misc, I know there were no rules against what I did. And as Semper so nicely stated himself....
Indeed.. you were posting off topic and ergo it was Spam. Clarkey did not begin the topic by opening a debate.. he said his goodbyes and stated his opinion... which as far as the matter with him could go, was an opinion. You had no place arguing in that thread, no matter what was on display as clarkey did not ask for opinions, nor arguments... he just posted to inform you of his departure and within the boundaries of common sense.. returning that by saying farewell (and NOT arguing) is on topic. You were warned to stop arguing, you persisted and were given a board warning for spamming.
What you did with Gunz... was allow a highly controversial topic to continue that had plenty of opinion sharing on a certain issue, which in itself was against the rules (the topic, not the opinion sharing), it was in the spam section (where by definition there is no such thing as off topic posting...) you then rudely attacked the individual and created rules to benefit your position and now, by your own admittance... you know you were wrong to do so.
I on the other hand gave you a polite warning not to argue and go off topic in a goodbye thread. You spammed.. you were a former GM mod of the spam and misc sections no less and you should have known better.

He obviously didn't have that.
I didn't create any rules. They're there in the forum rules... it's also universal knowledge that challenging a mod repeatedly on board issues in a topic outside here, after you've been asked not to do so... is highly frowned upon.

This issue is settled, Mr Ombudsman has given his ruling.. why is it still open?
