Honestly, honestly surprised how this went down, but my mistake.
Stolen valor? Â What?
Serious question, what the hell have you been smoking?
Read the post by Uther.

Alright, so you were trolling. Muh bad for giving the benefit of the doubt! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
No, talking about videos on social media by service members that are about military humour. Nothing to do with mine.

As long as you took it down, I don't care what you call me. I'm not going to derail this entire conversation to tell you how the military works. Look up the AFI yourself. Idk why you're relying on a vaguely implied military-affiliated stranger from the internet to tell you what is and isn't in regs.
But back on topic:
So we've discovered through some weird means that this entire thread was an excuse to shower yourself in rep points and then, later, an admitted troll. I'm no mod, but I don't think rape is really a great hot-button issue to milk for rep points or humor, even in a fictional setting. Reading back through the posts, a few people seemed to have personal reactions to this. So maybe in the future, let's keep our forum posts free of that kind of "humor."Â
Assuming you were joking in a weird way about the echo chamber or the "this is for humor" line, I'll leave the thread and let the conversation continue, but I think everyone's pretty tired of this.
