I think this kind of comment is a bit unhelpful. If someone in our dojo spoke to another member like this I would be disappointed.
Please bear in mind that you don't know anything about the person you are responding to - their age, life experience, psychological background - nothing. Yet in a real life conversation you would likely temper your response in light of those factors.
Given that you can't know someone's background, it is prudent to assume the worse (not that I'm arguing the case for Wandering WB - I'm simply making a point that from the point of view of the forum that person might have all kinds of learning, psychological and character difficulties that posters are unaware of and could - inadvertently - cause them harm).
If you disagree with a poster either debate or ignore.
I'm sure WB will be salivating over that comment, and this one.
Why don't you move WB's obvious trolling to off topic section. He's an obvious troll, and continues to post OT stuff in this and other threads.
Instead, you shush someone who actually does judo seriously, contributes seriously to this forum, and expresses a valid, non-insulting opinion.
