Not that we can't empathize.

But what about if it's light-hearted trolling, such as a Zero Suit Wario image that's not meant to be mean?

Not trying to be witty, it's an honest question.

If we deleted posts for people being smartasses, this forum would be empty. If it was just a Zero Suit Wario image, though, it would be deleted anyway. No image only posts, you see.

So light-hearted trolling is okay, when not mean-spirited?

because she only uses just one gun when she has two, like what is the point of dual wielding in that case

if you're gonna attack other members, go the full nine yards

When someone on SSMB is as hot as Revy, they can attack people however the fuck they want.

The mods are a fraud.

EDIT: An anime. Isn't Anime. Whatever.
