    Why do some people have to insert nasty replies to posts when they appear in the wrong forum. Especially when some people have a strange question and are unsure where to post. We should stand on our lab desks and protest this!!! ;P I can understand if the question/comment is stupid and is obviously in the wrong forum then someone should same something; but at least be polite. Can't we all just get along :)

        I know some people are edgy. That comes with age and employment :) But there is nothing a strong cup of coffee shoudn't fix.

                          Because everyone whoe does the online equivalent of listening before talking would have notice he's in the wrong forum. And what point is an serious answer if someone is probably not goingto read it?

                            Having your post not read is your own damn fault for putting it in the wrong forum. But we are really discussing the issue of whether it is OK to reply with a nasty message or not. We don't want to scare people away from CP. Do we?

                                tough question. If the only options are either "take them as they come", or "scare them away", I think we are sometimes better off with the latter. Finding a witty *snicker* reply to these programming quesitons is a kind of sport. It's silly. It doesn't save mankind. So what? They misbehaved, they got punished, life goes on. You might also have noticed that if someone apologises for his mistake, he's generally greeted with friendly back patting.

                                  btw, don't look at me as a disgruntled poster. I have never been victimized, harrassed or offered free offers for my email address. I just see it happening often so I wanted to see what everybodies opinion are.

                                      Keep in mind grasshopper, one man's rudeness is another man's firm response.

                                        Why do some people have to insert nasty replies to posts when they appear in the wrong forum. Especially when some people have a strange question and are unsure where to post. We should stand on our lab desks and protest this!!! ;P I can understand if the question/comment is stupid and is obviously in the wrong forum then someone should same something; but at least be polite. Can't we all just get along :)

                                        You're right. Many of the replies are unnecessarily nasty. By the way, I've suggested several times that the forums here should be rearranged so it's more obvious where a question belongs. But the replies I got were, in general, nasty!

                                          To get along more than a handful of people out of hundreds have to show some respect. Until more people at least try, then it ain't gonna happen.
