Yeah, but you were responding to Sergei who refered to it as "improvised melee weaponry". Which it is. It may not be improvised melee as in the way its used, but it is is an improvised melee weapon.

In other words you latched on to the word melee, I may have done the same with weaponry. Regardless. Because Sergei used both, with melee being used to denote Hand to hand range, not as you took it the act of melee. I still contend your correction was wrong.

Let me put this another way, near as I can tell what Sergei said was. Both are improvised bludgeoning weapons.

Understand that while Melee can mean in any close range combat and the act their of in the context of a game/pop culture influenced site like this. Melee is likely going to be used refer to none-ranged cold weapons and the act of using them. In fact thats how Postapocfan1999 uses it in the set up.
