Much as it pains me to say -- especially since I lost my cool earlier -- I think those guidelines are good, both for the community as a whole, because if we all abided by those rules all the time, this would be a very gentle, peaceful place; and for the individuals here, because it gives us a fairly safe place to practice patience and tolerance and self-control.
By the way, I felt better when I read your first post in this thread -- I don't want you to feel as though your intentions were lost, just because I agree with the civility guidelines that say you shouldn't have posted it.

Life can be complicated, can't it?
Peace.
