Are disclaimers distasteful?

Okay putting aside the fact that most likely they'd be ignored, do you think that disclaimers on discussions are distasteful? When I say disclaimers I mean one such as : Disclaimer - Please respond to me in a serious manner, and with full intent to respond in proper accordance with our guidelines. I know that a lot of people might disregard the disclaimer. However, do you think it's even worth putting that in a discussion? Do you think that it would be against our rules? Would you do it? Have you done it?

Baby I do not think disclaimers are distasteful and on the contrary they are very useful and they help get a point across,I am sure that some people will ignore the disclaimers,but it is definitely worth putting them on a discussion,I do not think it would be against the rules,I would definitely do it,and I always try to put a disclaimer on all the discussions I start to try and get more relevant responses on all of my discussions.

I know that you would definitely put a disclaimer on a discussion and I would not blame you. I know that me and you both have the same feelings when it comes to some of the responses we get, and I also know that we try to be as equally matched in the comments we make to the responses. I know that we wouldn't find it distasteful but some people may. I believe it is their own perogative. I appreciate the response.
