It's true that new members do that sort of thing, and several of us tolerate it, and correct the person(s) in question. However, if you look at some of the posts by big (http://wlodb.com/users/1614/posts) you'll see we have tried to be polite about it before. Although I'm not using as an excuse to be rude (and I'm not specifying anyone as being rude) you can see how some of us can be weary of the behavior by now.
