Good to know.

Although you may want to check a dictionary as I am sure that word is not recognised officially.

So, couple of points here.

First, what I meant by being a wiseass is, for instance, sending quibbling PMs pointing out irrelevant flaws or inconsistencies in the communication of moderators for no apparent good reason. Even if you're right (and you're not), does it really accomplish anything useful?

Second, there's absolutely no problem when using things that aren't words when it's the most effective way of communicating the concept. The point is not to write prose that could be used in a grammar textbook, it's to encourage people to put some time and effort into their post rather than taking a dump on the keyboard and pressing submit. Thus, even were it not a word, you'd be more then welcome to use it provided you do so in context and without violating rules 3 or 10.

third, i'm a moderator. even were it technically against the forum rules to use made up words, when i'm moderating, i'm allowed - nay, encouraged - to ignore any and all forums rules i might find necessary to disregard to make my point. i am thus absofuckinglutely justified in calling people on their douchebaggery using and terminology i find necessary - whether said terms are words or not. and i don't really feel like getting harassing pms from arrogant pricks when i do so, so i suggest you shut up and try not to annoy me further.
