If you want a wishy washy feel good yada yada you're probably not at the right place.

No, I don't need "feel good" posts everywhere, and my own posting style is probably just as often like the "civil" example above as the "positive" one (and hopefully only very rarely the "rude" one, in which case I don't mind those nodes being downvoted). But consider the opposite of what you're saying - I assume you don't want the Monastery to be a place where rudeness and posts like the one in question are the norm.

Anyway, that's not the point I was trying to make. I usually value content more than tone, it's just that the node in question is lacking in both, so I was hoping to change the minds the monks who upvoted it a bit. Who knows how successful I was :-)
