Silly analogy really, but...
If you try walking on ostrich egg shells you won't breaking any unless you WANT to, probably by jumping on them with hob-nailed shoes.
But if you walk on robin egg shells, even the lightest step will shatter them.
See the difference? That's what it's like on the forum at times - AND one's not always sure just what mix of egg shells there are. Like walking on them in the dark when one doesn't know the posters well or can't 'read' their facial expressions.
