Word for someone who complains about others not following the rules despite it not being such a big deal
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ margin-bottom:0;
}
I need a word for a person who tells people to follow the rules even though it's not such a big deal. Is there evem a word for it?
The guy pretty much spoiled the fun just because he wants people to follow the rules while he's breaking them sometimes himself..
OR. A word to describe a person who tells people every time " don't do that, it's not allowed" literally every time over every LITTLE thing that happens.

Stickler is the word you are looking for. It means a person who insists on a certain quality or type of behaviour. Disciplinarian could also be used.
