Default Is this rude?
Would you consider this to be rude? Or is it OK because we are on an anonymous discussion forum, or is it OK because it's in political?

Not asking if it should be moderated.

Asking if RR is a rude person.

When jobs disappear, unemp. goes up. Wow, only you can take those realities and decide that means everyone is sitting home by choice.

Your selfish greed has caused you to believe in this fantasy world that simply does not exist.

That is why your original post (that you weren't going to respond to) was so incredibly stupid. Your attempt at proving a point with a grade-school-level straw man failed, because others here have a mind that is above grade school. Sorry.
Personally I think it is extremely rude to make personal attacks on someone you have never met. But maybe I'm the one who is mistaken?

Has society changed that much with the internet and all that this is acceptable from a professional adult working in the same industry?

Why don't you PM him and ask him not to respond to your posts ever again. Or put him on ignore. Or maybe you should complain to the mods or to Tom. Or start a cry-baby thread about it. Oh wait, you already did that.

Would that be rude?

Is it rude to put someone on ignore? Really?

I've only complained to Tom about one person, and that couldn't be you because that person is not supposed to respond to me.

So I'm not sure what you mean? Could you explain more?

Want to tell us your other ID? Or are you to embarassed?

OK question #2) Is it cry-baby to question someone elses rudeness? Or should everyone just take it?

Pretty sure I never said that.

Your powers of reason are working well for you.

I could explain if I knew what part you were confused about. I think I outlined the choices clearly.

Not embarassed, but it would take away the fun.

Well, clearly you can't take it if you have to run to Tom and have him tell people not to respond to you. That's why I outlined some choices that suit you well. RR is a big fat meanie. You shouldn't have to put up with that.

I'm sorry that's incorrect, the correct first post in this thread was to quote the part where he said he thinks it's rude and reply "Your wrong, moran".

Which would have obviously been a joke and not rude. Childish possibly but not rude.

The question is why you put up with the rudeness. Are you atoning for sins in one or more past lives? future lives?

You should only put up with rudeness when I apply it in the bridge forum, on-line, and -- should we meet -- IRL. EB: Your source for quality rudeness. Accept no substitutes.

It's the political thread. If you're that thin skinned you need to post with the other girls in non-actuarial.
