You do know that if you think somebody is being rude or otherwise annoying you always have the option to select the yield sign with the ! mark, right? That alerts the moderators to pay attention to a particular thread.

Not sure why people can't stop thinking that just because they're behind a keyboard and monitor there aren't human beings on the other side? As far as being "nice" to each other. i'm with others - my participation in certain forums is almost non-existent only because there are some people who are just downright nasty. Life's too short. Just skip the thread/post where it's antagonizing you.
