Keep in mind grasshopper, one man's rudeness is another man's firm response.
The worst thing about the miracle of modern communications is the Pavlovian pressure it places upon everyone to communicate whenever a bell rings. - Russell Baker

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!

Linkify!|Fold With Us!I think that if somebody posts their message in the wrong forum she/he won't get the reply they wanted. That is what they deserve for posting in the wrong forum. Other people could post him/her to tell them they are in the wrong stinking forum, but in a nice stinking way. :)

Well, it seems most people's opinion is that there is extra nastiness. The posters may or may not deserve it. I think that if you want to be nasty then just add a ':)' after the message. That will make even the worst of replies seem nice :suss:

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?

I do. I mean, what's the point of people who can't or won't learn? Why waste time answering a question for someone too stupid or lazy to find the right forum for a question? (Note: i'm not talking about WebDev vs. ASP.NET mistakes, or C++ vs. ATL - i'm talking Suggestions vs. C++, or The Soapbox vs. VB.NET).

I agree 100%. Some people seem to take it as a personal insult.
