Description of the incident I late Joined as the CO of the round as my alt Canton Vandervork and was BE'ed by Forest.
I had the day previously already experimented with RPing him as a Mildly eccentric UA Colonial Governor/CO who spoke in old english terms and verbiage. He ofc was of sound mind and didn't think himself a knight or ever claim such things, merely used old english terms. I played a couple rounds and the crew for the most part seemed to play along and enjoy or, just ignore the gimmic. It was also met with little issues and no major hindrances to the round occured (to my knowledge) instructions were give clear enough and orders were able to be followed. No admin felt the need to comment
Then Today after a few rounds as my normal char. I swapped to vandervork and late joined as the CO to give another run at the gimmic. To my knowledge no major issues occured as a result until late in the round. At that point I went AFK briefly to pee, and when I returned Forest and Karl had spawned themselves in as a General and Lt. Cnl. and IC demanded I drop the act. I ofc in an attempt to stay IC, insisted it was no act and that I was raised speaking in such a manner, and they threated to kill me or stop. During which marines lost the front as CIC at this point had more or less stopped most functions and were paying attention to the drama going on. I then offered my mateba as good faith and insisted it was no act. At which point Forest Explosive Matebaed me and Karl took control of the ship. Forest then left, and Karl BEed an MP who attempted to arrest him for killing me before exiting the Almayer.
We held a Short discussion in Ahelps after he(forest) despawned. As I said in the Ahelps as well, I will say it again here I understood his reasons. And I stand by them, I can see why he may have felt I should tone it down. Though I do disagree to a point and argue it was a gimmic still within good taste of the CO guidelines, I mean Windhealer can say "Red tribe go unga real hard and scalp the Xendingos" I think Its well within reason for me to call marines Peasents, though I may undertsand a gripe about me calling the OB a catupult
I would like to say that a simple ping with a "Tone down the old english" or something of that nature would have been more reasonable than threating the commander IC and causing an abrupt disruption in CIC leading up to it.

What resolution are you seeking? A warning? I mean, Forest is one of the admemes I like a bit more and is usually fairly reasonable
Honestly I just felt the situation was handled poorly, and that threating to, and then exploding me IC was unnecessary, when 2 seconds spent saying "can you talk a little more normal" would have sufficed
