This is not comparable, as you did not "steal" the same way. What happened here is that someone took Raptus' work and, at first, did not credit him for it, as well as creating another link for it. It might be just me, don't take this as fact, but this combination of actions is almost like saying he made it, as it's the first thing one would assume, since he was not crediting anyone and having a link would make it look like he made them. Say what you want, but many people would have that impression. A stick is not copyrighted, but copyright is not the only reason not to "steal" one. It's unethical, permission could've been asked and credit could've been given.

However, I think this is all making it out to be much worse than it is. The stick "stealing" issue was solved. Raptus and Monolophosaurus clearly dislike eachother, and that's okay, no one is forced to like people here. We also encourage users to speak their minds, we do not want to mute anyone. But I think a little less ad hominem attacks would work - most of the time, those were just unreasonable insults toward eachother. Both are great users and some of the best on this forum, and we all know that they can do better than this.

Monolophosaurus and SrSpinelli - I know I'm late here, but here's a suggestion - why not take this to PMs, if you still wish to solve any issues between you two? You can try to solve this anywhere you want, even on a thread if you want, but it is merely suggested that you do it privately, as it is clear our users aren't very fond of seeing this, and I know you two aren't going to kill eachother through private messaging. So here's just a suggestion, really, no more than just a suggestion. If you do take it to PMs, please do report any abuse to the staff, or add a staff member to the conversation.
