PERSONAL MESSAGES
|
THERE ARE SOME PEOPLE OUT THERE WHO THINK THAT SENDING A PERSONAL MESSAGE GIVES THEM THE RIGHT TO BE INSULTING AND RUDE. |

It has never happened to me. I have always got kind messages but I�m really sad to hear that you have been insulted or treated rudely. There is an international politeness agreement regarding the Internet mediated communication that goes beyond this forum and site. In some other forums and courses I have been in, I have seen the politeness rule. According to it, any member who uses inappropriate language, who is rude to any member or insults somebody, is banished from the forum/site. Besides, in such places, it�s generally highly recommended to think more than twice the topic and the language to be used before writing.

Some people aren�t even worth complaining about. I just deleted his message.
There are too many good people in the world. |

TO memthefirst,
Let�s say that we had a misunderstanding. We had a communication problem.
Let�s forget the whole thing. Life is too short to hold grudges.
