Rude Response / Comment

I think most of the time it is the misunderstanding. I have a post before and it leads to a misunderstanding with a Mylotter here. Fortunately we discussed about it and finally I realized why he would act it like that. I am glad that finally we both know what's wrong and fortunately the misunderstanding is solved because of talking.

I have been misunderstood a time or two ... people took me seriously when I was just joking around. The person that I was talking with did not misunderstand me, but people reading my comments did not realize that I was joking or being sarcastic not serious. When they said something, though, I just explained, and it was quickly and easily resolved.

I dislike rudeness. I dislike bad words. I dislike disparaging statements, etc., etc. If that happens on my post, I give it a week or 10 day's time. After a fortnight, I go to that post, delete the comment discretely. If I delete it immediately, I feel the person will return and post another comment of similar nature. I'd rather the person feels he or she has let the steam out.

It could be misunderstanding though because English is not the first language of many people here.

Some people are probably rude in real life or have hostile personalities. I stay away from them if I can.

I honestly believe 90% of the time there is a misunderstanding or misinterpretation. Sometimes the receiver takes something wrongly and sometimes the giver puts something in a weird way and sometimes a mixture of both. I know I've made comments which may seem rude and a few months ago they may have been intentional on occasion. Since turning over a new leaf I don't mean anything rudely and am often trying to help but people take it entirely the wrong way and get all offended. If there's any doubt about how to take a comment there's nothing wrong with asking for clarification.

Misinterpreting the intent of a comment is probably quite common here due to the global nature of the site.

I've had a few rude comments and delete the ones that are obvious where you don't have to be a psychic to receive the inflection and tone. The others that have more tact in what they say, I just let them get their emotions out, although I think they should wait and respond later when they've calmed down.

I always try to be careful of what I say, knowing that my emotions (even using the emotes here) can't show if I am being serious or not. And, if I see a post I know I probably would be rude in, I will skip it rather than comment. Fortunately, one member I knew years ago, is not here anymore, so I know to not worry about him. However, I am sure there are others, I just haven't seen them yet.

When you can't see someone's facial expressions or hear their tone of voice, it's easy to misinterpret. Re-reading some of my own comments, I realise that they could seem brusque when I was trying to be jocular.

Well... i always make sure not.to give rude comments. Coz the site.wanted.a healthy community Though i misinterpreted "some"

that is true. There was one who commented and he/she was rude, that is why I delete my comment.

Exactly!! Not that I have come across many such comments. But there are definitely one or two who make comments like that most of the time. I just let it go and move along...

Sometimes people go overboard with their opinion ..and end up sounding rude

I hope you have not experienced this my friend. There is no place for anything like that here or anywhere else. Yes thoughtful response is common decency.

I think some comments are rude and have no manners of communicating views. I am all for different views but it is how it is commented on here that can often be interpreted as rude.

So far I haven't experience rude comments on my discussion, if ever I met it, then I just ignore it.

@Lde0318 I have been lucky here, I don't remember ever having a rude response on MyLot. Other sites I have.

Haven't noticed rude comments on my posts. If I ever left you rude comments I am sorry

One's truth is lie to someone else. Its just the way of looking at 2 other sides of coin. Its all about what you want to see.
