So, where do you draw the rudeness line? I’ve had people mock me on this board, some were downright rude, but that is to be expected on a board full of wiseacres. MM was never rude, just obnoxious.  
Come on, give me some parameters.  
Like, is using too many commas considered, you know, too idiotic?

I’ve always considered it quite rude to be obnoxious actually.

Name calling and other such rudenesses belong here, in the Pit, and not in other forums. Harassing the whole message board doesn’t belong anywhere.

Incidentally, if you have a question about the way the message board works (or doesn’t work, as the case may be), you can email the forum moderator or an administrator if you want a private answer, rather than a public one.

Give a man (or for that matter anyone) a fish and you feed him for a day; teach him to use the Net and he won’t bother you for weeks.
