Tessa,
I have reviewed the abuse reports you have filed, and concluded that neither reported post says anything that I see as being out of line. Clearly, opinions are going to differ on what is "rude" and this is where the staff here use their own best judgment. Please be aware that reporting something does not automatically mean we will remove a comment that you do not like or agree with, it merely means we will take care to review said comment.
Not everyone on this forum is going to agree on any given subject, and that is fine, it makes the world go round. In fact, I like to see healthy discussion born out of polite disagreement. All members of this forum are welcomed and encouraged to share their opinions even - or especially - where they disagree with others, provided they do so without attacking or breaking any other forum rules. All members of this forum are also welcome to inject humour into their posts where they see fit, again provided it breaks no forum rules.
May I also take this opportunity to remind you that you are responsible for what you post, and how you react. Even if you percieve someone as being rude towards you, there is no justification for retaliating.
Kind regards,
Kate
