I would love to read this entire thread but I'm too busy pushing folks with my stroller while I breastfeed and save a chair at two separate pools and refill old mugs while my 7 overage homeschooled children pretend to be younger and are all sleeping in the same room when not screaming in the jacuzzi.

I thought mine covered a lot of territory on the other thread, so I'll paraphrase it here.
When posting, keepin in mind that you are NOT entitled to a mistake. You must NEVER, EVER make a mistake; nor should you EVER show anger, despair, unhappiness and anything that may resemble a human emotion other than perfectness. If, however, in a moment of weakness you chose to disregard this advice, you the undersigned agree to tolerate a group of people swooping down and publically pointing out your mistake. This is ordinarily done in a tormenting, beating of the horse type manner. The offending poster must ALSO realize that he/she wrote it and must stand by it for possibly years into the future. Its the property of the group now, its theirs to comment on and ultimately pick apart til the meaning of your sentence is long lost in a barrage of hatefulness.
Learn this rule, live by it, and you'll never find yourself in hot water. Sure, you may feel like a robot, but its generally preferable to hot water.

If you break any of those rules be aware that you are going to be called a twit, stupid, a moron or worse by people who have a brain and heart the size of a pea.

I don't recall anyone ever being called anything like that on the DIS for long. That is one thing the mods are very good at, they do watch for personal attacks and those threads and close/delete them. Of course I don't visit the Debate Boeard very much so it could be happening there a lot. But the CB is a tad more polite than that.
