He addressed me directly on his post. Somehow he seems to believe mods can't re-read the post or figured he could say it was for OTG because no "normal" member could re-check what he said, but I know for a fact that he wrote my name with a bit of an alteration.
Maybe he thinks OTG being straight - supposedly - would make it not homophobic. Which is dumb.

He said so in that comment that got deleted and it kinda makes sense considering that falseo hasn't said anything that is remotely offensivce to anyone in the whole conversation. That being said, there is no way his excuse about the flawed quoting system can be true because neither falseo nor you have quoted anyone. I think he just realised that he attacked that he attacked the wrong person after he got banned(since you said that he has no right to critizise anyone's grammar)
Regardless of whether he attacked the wrong person or not, it doesn't make him any better. He still impulsively and hastily attacked FalseoGod, which we know is the wrong guy now, in an absolutely vile manner with complete intent to hurt False.

Trust me, him calling you falsegaylord is the least offensive thing in that post.

It does matter tho, BBG. It goes to show the "breaking point" if you will, of the admins and mods. Members like Sirnikolai, the mods have to be fair and unbiased towards. It makes members like me look like an ******* for being "mean" to an obvious troll/complete idiot. It keeps going on and on until they say something so over the top that the mods can no longer defend their actions at all.
And it's happened to you before already, just not nearly to this caliber, when you were banned from all computer threads. :p
Edit: And I may be "mean" to you as well, BBG, but I honestly don't mind you as much. I genuinely do try to give you advice sometimes and feel bad for you when I see the **** people in your ranked games. The fact that you haven't written a comment to Nikolai's level of bigotry towards me, or anyone else on the site for "being mean to you" shows a much higher level of maturity than him. So good on you for that.

I'm sorry, but I do believe sir nikolai should have been handled by mods quite a while back. Maybe not to the point of banning immediately because that never solves anything. However I've been a starcraft community volunteer mod for 4 years now. Frankly when it comes to situations like his that are "unique" as that one. We take a group decision that if enough rules have been overly abused more than once and been given multiple warnings then something needs to be done. I'm sorry if it seems as though I'm over stepping a line with this comment. However from experience from a very toxic player base on the starcraft forums I just feel something should change in policy if you want to keep others from going off on others from 1 person yelling ANARCHY!
I'm not directly blaming mods so please no one take it that way plesae. It's just there needs to be a better due process on these types of situations. I know I haven't been very active here and mobafire and maybe I'm out of line for commenting this.

You're not stepping over any lines with this comment. I agree. And I'd like to say this to the mods right now; don't be so lenient to these types of people, including myself.
This has happened countless times before with the likes of Mybloodisblack, mrcuddowls and I'm pretty sure a few others before my time here.
Same thing happens every time. Person posts dumb ****. Other people comment on how dumb the **** is. I catch wind of it and start calling person out for their dumb **** everywhere they go. And I've been warned by Psiguard for being overly mean before, and likely will again. But how much can I actually get away with unless I start taking things to a racist/sexist/homophobic/whathaveyou place? My point here is... if someones causing **** in your forums, reprimand that *****. Even if it's me. Or anyone else. No one should get a free pass from breaking the rules because you guys wanna give them the benifit of the doubt.

although I personally wish the mods/admins would take a more prominent stance against those people who live on the edge between trolling and stupidity.
I hear you, but I also hope you understand that someone being completely oblivious to what might seem obvious to others does not mean that person is doing anything against the rules. It becomes problematic on the forums once someone like this starts acting superior to those who are clearly more knowledgeable than him/her about a certain subject, but there are always two parties involved in cases like this.
The first, obviously, is that specific user. In many cases, it's not exactly easy to determine whether this person is simply ignorant or trolling everyone, and even if it's clear that it's the latter that doesn't automatically mean we can just get rid of him/her - if trolling wasn't allowed at all, Toshabi would also have to find a new home, after all :^)
The second party involved is the rest of the community, and in many cases it's actually one member of this group who steps out of line first (i.e. gets baited). We as moderators/admins have to be unbiased towards these type of situations (as OTG rightly points out), and I feel it'd be too easy to simply point fingers at the individual and blame him/her for everything.
It's definitely not easy though, and feedback on how we're handling individual cases is always appreciated. Just keep in mind that we can't act solely based on finding someone annoying to deal with.
@Shaddofokkusu
As OTG pointed out, you're not stepping over any lines with that comment at all. Thanks for the feedback. I do want to point out we have taken action against SirNikolai before (this includes several warnings and a temporary ban), even though that might not be as obvious to the community as it is to us (it doesn't mean nothing's being done).
@OTG
If I remember correctly, you were warned for this behaviour quite recently. I can guarantee you I will never give you (or anyone else) a free pass because of your rank or reputation - the only thing it could influence is how often you're warned before we turn to heavier measures (removal of rank, temporary ban, etc.).
Again, any feedback is welcome.
