SAP, we don't get to write how things are as we go along, we just follow what was established a long time ago, something that you and every other member has agreed to follow in order to remain members in good standing.
Spend some time reading the
Forum Guidelines and it will save you a lot of grief, and keep you from violating the rules

#3 - Disrespect to others, IN GENERAL, will be considered an item of low tolerance, especially when posting in our coed forums. Follow the Golden Rule and treat others as you wish to be treated yourself. This applies to fellow members as well as staff. We do not require that you have respect for us, but we do require that you treat us respectfully in the public forums. If you feel the need to vent, gripe, or blow off some steam regarding a staff member's action or decision, we ask that you keep it private. Email, RTM, or the PM system would be the appropriate avenue to take in such cases. In cases where you would like to request additional clarity about a staff decision, you are free to pursue an answer in either a public forum or private means of communication. If handled publicly, post your inquiry in a respectful manner.

After reading that guideline I can already tell you you are crossing the line with Torito. What you are trying to achieve only you know, but why get obsessed over a crappy topic that is poking fun to a former mod who hasn't been around in well over a year? Priorities man, priorities. The guideline tells you EXACTLY how you are expected to behave, and the low tolerance for disrespect. It's not an answer that Torito is required to give you because an answer has been around for a while.
It is worth pointing out that there is a lot more freedom in the Private areas. It doesn't mean that all rules go out the window, but you will not find us moderating many threads in said private areas, unless that there is a nuclear topic or outing and linking identities to RL.
