I've had a few responses quite rude, some I can deal with because they are being sincere. I don't feel the need to be rude but if I do let me have how ever I deserve.

I either tell them off in a polite manner, known here in the south as Sutherning them. Such as "Bless your heart, I know you didn't mean to come across that way, but....and end with ...I'll be praying for you". Something of that nature. OR I just ignore them and move on.

I'll be praying for you" really annoys most. ;)

Great rebuttle! I love it thanks. Ironically, the two rude old people who left responses that were rude actually left advice to ignore rude people. Is that not funny or what? They have no clue. Haha.

Even I got rude answers and just like you I posted a discussion which got very nice comments. Most of the good people at myLot told me to ignore. So that's what I do now. Also I got to know that you can report such answers by pressing "!" which is near that answer. And you can rate it - (minus). If we do not report, myLot will not know. So dont get disheartened. Enjoy.

If it bothers you to the point that you can't ignore them, let loose on them. They did not care about your feelings when they posted the rude remark..think about everything that has ever upset you and use it to write back a post that will burst them into tears.(Yes I know, sounds great doesn't it..but I have never done this either, even though I sooo have want to). Really, I would just ignore it the best that I could. Don't let them have the satisfaction of thinking what they say even matters. Also, try to respond to every post but theirs.

I've only had one rude response left to me so far since joining here. It was an attack on my intelligence personally so I just got the last word in but did it in a very mature and professional manner and then ignored any other responses from that person!

Yes I agree, I wouldn't repsond to them in the discussion i sent a private e-mail to the other. I also use the negative rating feature and if it's legitimate then it decreases their points. tahnks for your response!

Just ignore if you can. But if too distasteful give him apiece of your mind by adding a comment.

Do not worry. Ignore. Why do you want to bugger yourself.If one leaves a rude response, do not react. Next time before making rude response he will think twice.

This is what I do but I had one old guy be so rude I sent him him an e-mail. I wasn't going to allow him to talk down to me but I wasn't going to give him points for being rude.

I agree, just ignore them. Some have nothing to contribute, some are immature, some just want to see if they can push your buttons.

Personally, I would respond to it and see if they meant it the way it came across. Maybe it was something different than you thought. It is easy to misconstrue meanings online when you can only read and don't have a tone to feed off of.

I wrote back with a snippy little piece of my own mind. I started a threat about negative myLot-ers. And, I reported the person for being mean spirited. And all three of these things made me feel ever so much better!

I am still New to this site, and have yet to face this one. But I feel it is Best to always do unto others as they would do unto you. If you move on from it, hopefully they will learn to be more polite in the future.

Sometimes I look at response and wonder if they even read what they just typed, because even if they meant it lightly, it really was not funny.

Just ignore it and move on. No matter where you go, you're gonna come across thoughtless and rude people. Just keep in mind though, that some people may be coming across as rude when really they mean nothing by it.
