Hi,

Sasha(GrapefruiTgirl) well stated! I agree whole heartily that rude responses are un-warranted. We as a community do need to police and LQ is moderated so that this situation is limited.
So I suggest the use of the REPORT utility provided by LQ.

Of late I have seen some bait posts. I think this type of post is not needed. There are people out there who just want a good fight, be online or other ways. I come from academia and even there the problem exists with people wanting to respond rudely and unruly. We generally just ignore the situation but when someone is that bad then they are removed from the discussion or debate. But not always! We will patiently listen at times with good manners and demeanor. Respond only when necessary.

Open discussion is healthy, you will always have someone with an opinion of their own. Therefore wanting to state that the statement you just made is not correct. If you have established semantics along with syntax then you should be able to discuss anything in a intelligent manner. The language of the discussion will be the faulty factor here along with the demeanor of the individuals involved.

A lot of the problems are created by the original poster not knowing how to present or formalize the question/problem.

How To Ask a Question by XavierP is a good review for a new or experienced LQ poster.

Bill (dragonslayer48dx), I agree with your statement also.
