a) He is just being sarcastic

We should all remember that Webmaster World members come from many different cultures from all over the world. For many, English is (obviously) not their native language.

Be careful when you use sarcasm (not saying that Brett is being sarcastic), and maybe be careful about your use of humor, too. You might find something funny, while the member from Elbonia might take offense. What to you may be obviously sarcastic may not be so obvious to the member from Lower Slobovia.

Advice from someone who has spent years living abroad, "gone native," who married a foreigner, and who has to deal with these issues often.

Just a thought.
