Yeah I have to apologize for that one, I dropped the ball. While I stand by my decision to let you know it was not appropriate, I should have been a LOT more clear and concise about the whole ordeal. I was just exhausted from the day and doing several things at once.
Needless to say, I've already taken steps to make sure all future events will be handled properly. It was not mod encouragement, per se - apparently I have my own flavor of assertion that is okay - it was just me fucking up and being distracted.
Though while my memory is a little fuzzy - I'm almost certain that after the last log, I did say something to the extent of "Yeah the 'first' first warning was not clear so this is the new first warning, I'll be more clear from now on but still keep it down". Could be wrong, though - wouldn't be the first time I remember doing things I didn't actually do
