also,

good job doing something like searching for all instances of the word "die" and not checking any of them to see what they say. there's like 2 of those that are actually people breaking the rule, then there's people who are obviously not breaking the rule for almost every other one.

perhaps you are complaining about the lack of moderation or inconsistency of moderation on issues like this? the mods do not read every post in every forum, and at least somewhat rely on the assistance of the members of the site to find instances of people breaking the rules. so please, hit the notify button when you see someone out of line!

As I recall it was simply 'die. graph plz?' or something to that effect. It was clearly not meant in a mean spirited way. It's not a big thing, but pretending that such an exclamation is the mother of all sins on 2+2 when it's obvious that similar statements are made ALL the time without consequences, it gets a bit silly...

Not to be a nit* but you said yourself: "amongst the very few things we just really aren't supposed to allow on the site is people telling people to die"

I took that to mean any people, not just people on this site. I mean 'death threats' (lol) is equally serious whether they are levelled to someone directly or off the site, right?
