Ah whoops, qio, sorry.

I am strongly of the opinion that any supposed provocation is no excuse whatever for rude behaviour. Issues can always be resolved with civility, and indeed that's what people normally do.

I responded to you publicly because I thought it was important that the newish players who'd be on this thread understood that flaming wasn't a normal part of this community.

Although experience has taught me that people who flame or are rude can rarely even understand why I'd want to enforce civility when "people are being WRONG on the internet", it's nevertheless important to stick to the rules even if you disagree with them. The point is to make sure everyone feels this is a friendly place (which it is).
