Acceptable behavior???

This post is a follow-up regarding another thread. As a new member of this forum I am interested in what other members think and feel are the limits and parameters of discussion and discourse within these many threads? Should anybody be offended by personal insults? When should a disagreement be over contradictor opinion be taken seriously? Should members seek to opine and share in the sprit of generosity or debate? Maybe this topic is more appropriate for the open discussion area but since joining I've spent most of my time in this Diesel Discussion than any other and I've come to appreciate the collective wisdom within. Every thought and opinion is valued. Thank you all.
