dmigty - if I have an issue with a QLer who I think is being rude I usually say so in the thread in question. But generally I don't have a problem with it.
If people think I'm rude or mean then that's fine, but I'd rather they told me than just creating threads like this. When people PM me about this I always respond and explain why I said what I did, and why I did it in the manner I did.
From the PMs I've had I find there are generally three cases where someone considers me rude or mean;
1) Misunderstanding
My "to the point" way of commenting has come across as rude when it wasn't supposed to have, or my (poor) attempt at humour has been taken seriously.
2) Deserved
Some posted something stupid/rude/etc that deserved the response it got from me.
3) Undeserved
I'm having a bad day and took it out on someone I shouldn't have.
