I don't particularly want to get into a discussion about this, but I'll bite anyway. (btw, did you forget to login?). The point/problem is not WHAT the post says, but how. My post above, for example, could have said 'You idiot, you clicked on the button, its your browser what did it', or some such, but I chose to just explain calmly.

The only guidelines here are social ones, either one conforms, work with/like the majority, or one might was well leave. Theres never been much sense in joining a community and trying to force it to conform to your ways, if you're in a minority. It just won't work.
