Alright, alright, I've just been trolling you to see how long you'd keep on arguing given no real contribution from my side...the point I am actually making is that you're a very easily needled person.
You make a lot of very good points in your response, but I can't help feeling that your point only touches on the point the original person was making: she (at least I assume it was a she) was saying "I hate it when people don't reply to every little thing I post online" (revealing themselves to be very insecure) and using perceived lack of other people's politeness as a way to justify that the fault is in other people and and not in herself.
You criticised their definition of politeness because the subject of politeness and close-mindedness has been an issue for you in the past. So I rather mischievously) decided to troll you and see how long you'd carry on a one-sided argument.
I confess this wasn't a very kind thing for me to do, and having had some time to think over the morals of it over the last few days (during which I've been on holiday), I'd like to apologise.
