be·lie [bih-lahy] Show IPADude just take the compliment.are you misusing "belies"? Or just insulting me in an intricate way?By the way, Boxxy, I think you should know that every time I read a post of yours like that my estimation of you goes up greatly. You have a way of mixing pure intent and equal parts derision into such posts that belies a very keen intellect. I salute you, sir.

iridium helpdesk post:
Galspanic, I am here to appeal an infraction I received recently.
The post, for reference:

To start, it could easily be argued that, by including the defintion in the mod-text rather than simply saying "infraction for trolling issued", you yourself are trying to illicit a hostile reaction from me. Adding the definition of trolling to the mod-text does nothing to clarify the infraction itself more than simply "Trolling infraction issued" does, so I'd love to hear your justification for why that itself isn't trolling.
Secondly, I'd also love to hear your justification for why
you thought this post was trolling; who was I trying to illicit a reaction out of? I provided an explanation of the previous infraction in question. Is being accused of having super-powers supposed to illicit hostile reactions? Or maybe was I saying something a bit deeper with that statement, such as:
"The staff thinks they understand the intent behind all posts, but in reality they do not. Oftentimes this leads to misunderstandings between the staff and the recipients of false trolling infractions. Their overzealous tendencies are not the only cause of false trolling infractions however, because the staff as a collective do not quite understand what trolling actually is, and this can (and has) led to false cries of "wolf!" many times in the past. The infraction you are asking about, Highroller, is just another example of the above."

an infraction I got on 11-21-12 or whatever was set to "never expire", but that's not correct. Hence, I should only have 2 active infractions atm instead of 3, and hence my suspension should be reversed.Wait wait wait. You mean he's going to fix the infraction to 'never expire' or nullify the suspension?Apparently Galspanic gave me a never-expiring infraction for ignoring a moderator request; Sene is going to fix it "in a bit", awful nice guy that he is
