mods if you are going to give me an infraction, will you kindly use a word that exists so I can understand what you are saying.

It is both a noun and a verb, as I dare say you know already.

repeatedly and annoyingly ask (someone) to do something.

On page 47 of my Oxford Dictionary, if you'd read the verb part of badger (under the description of the animal), it says it means to pester. Hope this helps. I am surprised that being 51 and from the United Kingdom you haven't heard of the phrase before as it is fairly commonly used.

none of that applies as far as I'm concerned. it was one post. three words. and 2 were the same word.
kill this. now before I wind myself up and really do have a go at the person who gave me it.

I'd just like to quote your own signature:
ignorance is no form of defence, stupidity is no excuse.
:D

what's my sig got to do with it. what I said was not badgering. it was a sarcastic way of saying stop the arguing!
if I had said it multiple times then yes I would agree with you it would be badgering.

In the words of Mrs Boyle (Father Ted):

"You will, you will, you will, you will, you will, you will, you will, you will, you will, you will you will, you will, you will, you will, you will, you will, you will, you will, you will you will, you will, you will, you will, you will, you will, you will, you will, you will you will, you will, you will, you will, you will, you will, you will, you will, you will"

Etc
 
OP, take it on the chin, most of us have had an infraction for reasons the perpetrator cannot fathom, accept it and move on, as infractions quickly turn into bans! I know this from experience.
If you have a grievance you should keep it to PM, and not really come to the forum to vent, there is a procedure to follow.

Man up and move on!

Suck it up and get on with your life :)
(If I told you about the # of infractions/warnings I have had, your eyes will pop out :D )
 
The urban dictionary has a far more hilarious & NSFW definition of "badgering" - I'll not post the link here (it definitely would get reported) but it involves at least two people...
 
Come on.. stiff upper lip and move on...
there is no love or sympathy here for you on this.
You may be 51, but your comming off 15.
