So here's the problem with a text only communication medium, such as these forums. People read the things you type and assume that you meant it in one tone or the other. Brian (bgannin) is a really relaxed and chill person, and wouldn't mean any form of rudeness to anyone. But people read it as such.

Same as I just read the comment Seawolf typed as being very rude, but I do know he did not mean it that way, you guys really do need to stop reading people's posts as being rude. His post was informative, and summarized the position we're in pretty nicely.

Now, of course, someone will read this post and think I'm being rude, but I started out knowing that, because everyone on these forums thinks that I'm the rudest person on earth. And so forth.

So be nice, and stop the bickering, please

We just need some more civility and overall 'niceness' in this forum.

That being said, rudeness is not absolute. While somebody might not think they are being rude if lots of other people see them as being rude then they should probably try and fix that.
