Does he look like a mod?  Of fucking course it's not a rule.  Just a suggestion.

Ironbite-one that is a pretty good one in my book.

[not sarcasm]I used to know how to do stuff like that, change font colors and size and bold/underline and whatnot. But I haven't done that in long enough that those skills have atrophied. So now I have to get creative in expressing my thoughts in such a way that my fellow members can understand them. [/not sarcasm]

It's just the imperative tone that threw me off.

That's... not actually a rule, is it?

It's a recognisable convention but nothing else.

I prefer to let sarcasm be obvious in itself or use fake-bbcode tags like you did.

I guess World of Warcraft is problematic now.

I honestly think "kek" is annoying.

Whenever I hear it, I hear it repeated nonstop as the evil laugh of some kind of deranged KKK affiliated villain.

I always thought it was a Startcraft meme (stemming from "zerg rush kekekekekekekeke!"), not a WoW thing.

StarCraft got it started, but any game with a big Korean presence will have it (kek is the Korean onomatopoeia equivalent of hah).

Yeah, if the pagans are so smart, why did Jesus invade Pagan-land on the back of a dragon and kill them all!

Huh.  I thought "kek" was how World of Warcraft translated "lol" when playing for the Horde.

It's a mix of the two. "Kekekekekeke" came from Starcraft players in Korea and "Kek" was in WoW. Since Horde and alliance players are speaking different languages (for gameplay reasons this includes the undead who are mainly former humans and all the other characters that really should know how to speak the Alliance languages.) their comments are transformed into gibberish if seen by players from the other faction. But the gibberish did seem to follow some logic and someone speaking orcish and saying "lol" would always have it translated into "kek" when seen/heard by Alliance characters.
