Check the manage vio tab for the flagger.
As stated, I'm on the fence. It can go either way.
Where I am going with this, is to have AGORACOM decide.
How they interpret the post and rule, FROM EXPERIENCE AS IS THE PRATICE OF LAW, will send a message to skreal if he violated rule #2, or the flagger to have misinterpreted same.
Both posters should accept the decision, and move on.
