#21 Don't judge inner motives as to why people are posting a thread or posts...only God knows the inner man; we only see externals (see 1 Samuel 16:7)

#22 When you start to post something accusing somebody of some inconsistent or negative position, if you're not sure they hold to it (you think they might, but aren't sure), ask them. Put the comment in question form vs. assumption form. [Exception: If the poster is an active member of a given body of believers, then some assumptions about standard doctrinal positions can be made...but even then, remember that some are "cafeteria" pick & choose-'em style; others are "inactive"]

#23 Don't hold other posters to a standard you're not willing to apply to yourself. For example, if you accuse others of intolerance, ask yourself first, "How tolerant am I of their religious vantage point?" (If you're intolerant of it, then it doesn't make much sense to accuse others of perceived 'religious intolerance')
