can we be a bit more civil about it.

We all make goofs, I'm top on that list with it. But I swear some people get their jollies over 'outing' people in public about their mistakes. Instead why not send that person a private IM and ask them to check it.

I know I've done it in the past and honestly, I thought I looked like a jerk when I did. So I stopped doing it.

We all make mistakes - can we be a bit civil when correcting others?

Thank you!
