I realize that on the internet one expects to see emoticons to act as cues for determining whether a poster is happy, sad or winking; I *occasionally* prefer to leave people in the dark as to my intent, allowing the cues in the text itself to act as tone.
My post can be read as wry, sarcastic, serious, what have you. Do you honestly believe I'd advocate shooting spammers?

Well i certainly did understand that you were tring to make a funny. However Where im from if your making a funny... it had better be able to be defended if challenged. Namely this happens with jokes that make you go "hmmm well it is funny... but it just does not sound right." AS for your statement it did put a smile on my face at the point of the adding a rider for chain mail, I found it cute.
