What gets your Goat on the forums?

By the way it's hubris or hubristic in that case

And it's not so much self pride as it is pride for this website. Like I said there is no need for self proclaimed experts to be rude to newbies because they don't have time to answer such a petty question. This site was created for newbies and if you scroll to the top of every page it says, and I quote "the friendliest online community for all your herping needs". If we're rude to someone right off the bat we're going to lose members. This site has a lot to offer and I'd hate for someone to leave when they need advice just because someone took the time to be rude.

I often make up words that suit my needs.

I must have missed the election that put you in your position of Politeness Enforcer.

I will kindly ask that should you think I have been rude to someone, you keep you butt out of my business. I almost always have reasons for what I do and I have no intention of explaining them to those, like yourself, who do not approve of them.

When one of the Red or Green names has an opinion, I will do my best to acquiesce, but short of that, I do take offense at people going behind my back to alter what I have written/said.

Do it in public if you want to disagree with me, or anyone for that matter.

Sneaky people are not to be trusted.

People who pm other people about yet other people, but don't let the people they're pm'ing about know, are sneaky.
