>Or maybe we could offer suggestions of ways to give advice that clearly express that we're not saying it's the only way to address the problem?
Uhm. Clearly express it, as in the opening of your post write: This isn't the only way to possibly address the problem, but I think ....blah, blah. Or, you could write at the end of your post : What do others think, or There may be differing opinions.
Really though if you've expressed yourself relatively inoffensively, you cannot help how someone will interpret or react to what you've written. And even if you do write your viewpoint strongly, that is fine as long as you are not attacking anyone personally and it's within the guidelines. Again, up to the reader to control their reaction as much as it is the writer to watch what they are writing.
