"does this post add value to a 3rd party reading the thread?"

If you can't answer that honestly.. then you might want to re-think why you are posting it and consider if it should be a PM or just something that you should count to 10 for...

Quoted from markmon:

So this is part of my question also. Sometimes I post on my phone and don't feel like typing a bunch of niceties to get to the point. It's not trying to be mean or anything it's just being brief. But this can seem rude at times. I think it shouldn't be policed.

Terse is never going to get you in trouble. You don't need to give people reach arounds... or stroke someone. Just don't make things personal, don't attack people, don't make unnecessary drama for the lolz

Is the post about the topic or the poster?

These aren't tough evaluations to make or consider.

It's not hard to distinguish between telling someone they are incorrect... and people who run around telling people to stfu or chasing someone around
