The problem is ( as I see it) that most people adjust their style of language according to where they are speaking it, or, indeed, posting it. The language which is acceptable and the intent in using it will be different in different circumstances.

The language and intent within a post on one forum may be completely different in another one - Some are tightly controlled and moderated, others are more liberal.

What I would write in a post in one place would not necessary be in exactly the same style posted elsewhere. I absorb the 'ethos' and post as I believe to be acceptable for that site or location. The language I use when posting in the UK Forum would be slightly different from that I use in this one, which would be different again from that I use on the phone to some "cold-caller", or that I use in the Pub when chatting with a group of good friends.

Some people seem unable to do this... Just as some people are unable to realise that what that multi-coloured duck may find unacceptable, Mrs Blorenge wouldn't bat an eye at. Like this -
