The thing is, regardless if they took it the wrong way or didn't - in the case of the former if the person used the more polite example and the user reported them, chances are higher a GM will just cite it up to playstyle differences and not land a player in Gaol.

In a game where people are asking people to do their best in game, it's a wonder to me how many excuses come up from the people making that argument can't do their best to convey information to other players on how one could help to meet better standards.
