Sorry   but  I just don't see the positivity of threads whose topic is complaining about other peoples behavior on the Forum.  

Now , LOL,  I will duck and run for cover .....er......maybe I'll take my horse       Bye!!

How do we approach it when someone has given us a very rude response? Passively ignore it or tell them that they have been rude?

The problem has always been how to speak TRUTH seasoned with GRACE. 

Col 4:5  Walk in wisdom toward outsiders, making the best use of the time. 
Col 4:6  Let your speech always be gracious, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how you ought to answer each person.

Amen Brother!     If,at the time you are presented with a rude comment you cannot get it right(we all have bad days-lol) & by "getting it right" that would be walking in Spirit & in Truth then I would say"yes",ignore it    It is better to say nothing at all than to say something unkind from a 're-action"

    THat's right,there is nothing better than clearing up a mis-understanding & it can happen a lot on the computer(as you said),,,,,Gods Word tells us to always go directly to our Brother or Sister and we will find it is the fastest & easiest way to bring Peace & display our love ,one for the other,,,,,,Nobody has to know that your feelings were hurt,most times we take offense when the offender had no intention,it simply came out wrong,,,,,,,

Please don't get mad at me by taking any of this seriously. It was meant in fun. 

Oh Lady Kay!

Don't you realize by now (and the proof is in this thread) that people actually seem to have fun BY arguing! 

Many of them will even deny that they enjoy arguing, as they criticize others for arguing so much, LOL!

Blessings Lady...

     Yep & that is what makes the world go round,in a matter of speaking(lol,now someone will say,,,,,NO,God makes the world go round) It is simply the spirit of pride my Sister,Christians are not immune to it,it is one of the biggest struggles we face,,,,,,anytime you come across the "last word" folks or just gotta get "their point" across we have to pray & love them to bits!!!

It is one of my favorite verses of Scripture,a daily reminder to ask Jesus to help me respond & not "react" with the carnal mind & to PRAY for each other,,,,,,,THe simplest way to end argument is to walk away,,,,,,,Praise Jesus!

That's what my daddy always said.

Sometimes I think the people on here will argue about everything and anything. If I were to post the the sky is blue and grass is green. I would have at less 3 or 4 people arguing with me that the sky is really purple and the grass is not really grass at all. Please don't get mad at me by taking any of this seriously. It was meant in fun. 

Well, i wouldn't want to let you down so here goes.

my cousin is color blind and what i call blue he calls purple and i have a friend who got tired of mowing his lawn and he put in artificial grass.....    so i guess I could argue in their behalf and let you know that you are correct.

but i don't think i would want to say that you have to agree with me..

So do I. They feed on negative debates and they are trolls. I imagine every Christian message board has their share of them

Yes, they do.  Especially the ones who will come into a thread and argue the opposite of the majority...every time.  Or those that have only ONE topic and derail every thread they possibly can.  I think some are so bored they just argue to keep themselves awake.
