I've a right to my opinion as do you, but personal attacks are out of bounds. Feel free to attack my opinions, but refrain from attacking my person.

I must admit to being somewhat on the other side of the fence on this little issue. In fact, I continue to be amazed at how successfully this board accomodates guests and members whose native language is not English. When I see those pleas for help pieced together with the barest understanding of English and then see you guys pitch in as best you can to help out, I am impressed. So what if the poor fellow puts "please" into his subject? He often is just trying to meet his perception of the minimum standards of courtesy so as not to piss you off in the first place. Seems a shame to damn them if they do and then damn them if they don't, doesn't it?


later edit:
On reflection, though, I would join in drawing the line at multiple "pleases" such as the classic topic of "pleas pleas help me, aaaaaagggghhhh!!!" which is, I agree, bordering on the intolerable.
