Then the B level is keep it on topic, right?

Like, for example, if you're in Japanese on a forum which is all English, that's not that polite unless they're a Japanese monolingual and they post a translation of it, then that might be okay, right?

And then C is don't make personal attacks on other people, you know, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

Point is there's rules of the road.

Those rules can be mutually incompatible.

You could have a vegan forum and a carnivore forum that could both be internally polite and something that'd be on topic somewhere else.

Completely different person.

They'll be flight, you know, professorial even or whatever while they're just wilding out.

Go ahead.

It's funny, right?
