I learnt the hard way that it's not true. It's how others percieve it. Each forum has it's own spectrum of etiquette. I'm not a very social person, so forums are a chance for me to learn an aspect of it. Whether someone makes a "rude" post isn't necessarily about how many posts they make.
So, don't be hurt if someone calls you rude. In other places that's a high-esteem compliment and cultural unifier, like in the Caribbean.

You're actually very social on the forums, it's becoming a popular way of communicating recently. When you look at a spectrum of etiquette across the forums, realize you're becoming a leader and good example for new members. But you might need to put your work ethic aside at times.

You're tired and stressed. You're just a girl. So, don't try to operate like a big business.
