If I was making serious sexual advances in a post then yeah, of course it should be edited. But as it was obviously intended as a joke, and quite a mild one at that, of course it shouldn't have. As I say, it is quite obviously incorrect action.
You may find it uncomfortable or whatever because it deals with you (although you must have incredibly thin skin if that is even true), but that's just your own bias. Making a light-hearted joke is not against the rules, you chose to read it as such because you didn't like it. Simple. I wasn't overstepping any OFFICIAL mark.
Heck, there are tonnes of stuff I find personally offensive. Somebody told me that they hope or I should burn in Hell. Ambi read that comment. I wept for hours. In my eyes, if you want to play this game, that is a far more 'harmful' comment than my non-one.
Now, the only reason I actually brought this thing up at all was to make my previous post in this thread non-spammy, I'm not that bothered about it. It was, at the end of the day, only a little not-serious comment. However, I do loathe censorship and abuses of power, but over something so inconsequential it isn't particularly important, I s'ppose.
The way you two are speaking makes it sound as if I'd walked up to her and ran my hand up her dress. But, yes, anyway: indefensible.

You two obviously aren't on "friendship" terms, so you have no right to make sexual comments toward her. If you two joked like that all the time, then it would be fine. Hell, most people around here welcome slutty, lewd sexual comments directed at them, and that's fine if both members involved are on "joking" terms. Well... if it's not "fine," it's at least not against the rules... in most cases. I guess.
But what you're doing is certainly unwanted...

Ridiculous. A ‘personal’ joke can only be told when the other person is on a similar emotional-relationship plain? Yeah. I personally wouldn’t make such comments in that manner to someone I liked, what would be the point?
You seem to be trying in some way to justify the editing with more than a bit of difficulty there. It’s all rather ambiguous and uncertain. What you’re talking about, again, is the fact you don’t like it, which is fine. But a joke, whatever kind, is still a joke. I do not believe I have broken any rules, unless it’s some silly-ass one I haven’t conceived of yet.

You certainly deserve one for the horrid PM you sent to her.

Well, I don’t recall any horrid PMs. But I’m sorry if you read any in that way.

Most.... well all of you found this to be funny joke, but at least any of you could do is to edit that.

I agree, actually! That pseudo-gag on my part was quite near the knuckle (certainly far worse that Ambi's comment) and I did think about whether to include it or not. But I truly mean no offence, it was intended to be a play on my foreign ignorance AND a dig at a country I know nothing about.
But yes, it's a good point. If Ambi's comment was edited, under THAT thinking, your one certainly should as well. But that's the bias I was talking about, quite a bit, before. While that was seen as fine, or acceptable - because it wasn't about her - the one concerning her warranted her attention.
