You'll have to forgive us on that, there are no written rules so we are making this up as we go, but trying to be as fair and impartial as we can.
Not being a dick, even though this will be seen as dickish... That's one of those "unwritten" rules, that should go without saying. Anyway, its fixed we learned a lesson and I'm an asshole. So... all is right with the world.
No, you aren't being a dick. Like Bart said, if he had seen it was locked, he wouldn't have replied.
But the 'Quote button is still there for us, and it still works even if a thread is locked. Quirk of the software I guess. Unless you scroll down to the bottom, he wouldn't have seen 'Thread Locked' at the bottom.
I also posted to our Moderator thread that I locked it after locking it, so if he's looking at posts chronologically he wouldn't have read I locked it till after posting. Now everyone knows to look for our Mod thread first, and check it out before posting.
By all means, hold us to account! We expect it. Don't criticize our decisions (no one for example disliked the thread being locked for 24 hours), but by all means point out mistakes like this to us. Our moderating is specifically to make this a more enjoyable place to be, so if we aren't doing that we want to know.
