I'll give you the benefit of the doubt, as you can probably drop me with only a paperclip and a dried piece of sturgeon.
I'm missing something here myself. As in - why are you calling out SpNkid? That's ADMIN/MOD/QP territory. If FF takes offense, he's a valued guest and more than capable of fending for himself. Personally, I thought SpNkid's response was well within the bounds of propriety - and a bit funny too (largely because FF missed an obvious visual clue that I know he is knowledgeable enough to pick up on). Maybe because I understand the difficulties of communicating in a foreign language. So please stay in your lane or explain yourself more clearly when you wander out of it. Otherwise an intervention is called for - and nobody wants to have to use a paperclip to hang a dried piece of sturgeon around anyone's neck. It's too hard to get the smell off your hands afterwards.

A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear.
