As the posting continued, 1journeyman did a nice job with reprimand - pointed out the problem, and showed the correct way for future posts. To learn from a mistake, you need to know what that mistake was and how to fix it. According to RG, this was natural for him/her, and it may very well be, however, it's not an appropriate tone in this or most situations. Most of us know this and take for granted everyone does. But the fact is, many people often aren't aware of the need to change their tone based on the circumstance and come across as brash and rude.
As for my comment, I simply meant "learn from the mistake, take the advice on politeness, and move on." I did not mean to offend you or anyone else.
No, I agree with you. But he does not care to listen to others and keeps up his poor attitude.
He is being watched very closely by ALL the SHARKS here. This is a great place and I do not want to see him leave, get mad or worse get banned. Hopefully he can start to control his thoughts. Barry
