Country:
The forum rules can be a bit difficult for people whose native language is not English. That is because it sets boundaries, that native speakers of English can see, but it is not so easy to see that for others. The easiest way to deal with this problem is to talk to the person as if they were sitting right across from you over lunch or dinner. One would not say "the problem with people like you...." to someone they were having a meal with. That would be considered rude, regardless of what country you live in, so discussing things in that way, will help to keep things civil.
