Quite right. You say what you feel.
Unfortunatly this can happen but when it does just think fcuk it and move on because you wont be a newbie for ever
ive not really seen much in the way of rudeness, maybe some dry reply's when someone keeps doing stuff that is clearly stated in the guidelines NOT to do. Then there is also some serious discussion threads that can cover some sensitive topics. As in life you would expect strong opposing views to come across less than fluffy with each other. I have seen plenty banter between some members that know each other well, and I have seen, I am glad to say, some short shrift being shown to some new members who come on here and say some pretty awful stuff.
Its difficult to know what you mean without an idea of what type of post and response.
i'm a newbie, and never have had a bad response yet.
Oh no i'm i tempting fate
I reckon most of the humour on here is sarcasm which if you are not used to it is not the most straigthforward thing to express or pick up through a computer screen and there fore is easily seen asbeing rude but is probably not meant to be....after all is everyone here for the same thing more or less..
Debs called me a belly wanker, which is true. Self confessed, even.
That's as derogatory as calling Freck' a pedant.
I take it all back, come on throw it at me :giveup:
