I would much rather someone was blunt to my face than sly and whispering behind my back.
Heat of the moment, I understand, I'm sure I have done it in the past. I have never thought any of your posts have been blunt btw. It is possible to get your point across without being so blunt that it appears rude.
I'm not sure if this next sentence will be allowed but here goes:
I once answered a post in the style of someone else to see what would happen. the responses to my post were mainly negative; but if it had been written by the 'someone else', that would have been seen as ok.
