Is confidence the same as rudeness ?
Rant-ish question: This is something I think about often for some reason, I try to avoid judging or being bothered by tones and certain ways of speech, but it eventually gets to you and makes you wonder
I really don't understand people who are rude for no reason, if we're discussing something, I like to keep things respectful between us even if we have different views, that is unless you're saying something completely nonsensical of course.

definitely not. i actually think people who are rude during discussion are the biggest cry babies (no matter what the context or upbringing you have). you can make your point without bursting out a vein and calling others names. it won't make your point any less strong and firm. confidence is having others hear your thoughts without having an attit...... reply
Hell no, confident people should lift you up not bring you down. Period.
Everyone should talk respectfully it doesn’t matter what site we are using. I once talked with someone with a bad attitude and i mentioned that they should talk more respectfully and they answered with “this is an illegal site, why do i have to be respectful?” Girl.. t...... reply
