Definitely private mail.

Airing dirty washing in public is not the way to go.

Cry yourself to sleep at night, lose your appetite for a few days, have a nervous breakdown, yes all these things happen when you clash with other forum users, There is no easy way to avoid it, I feel your pain missuscomfort

I wouldnt view it as a problem. I`d attempt a bit of clarity and if that didnt work I`d let it go.

It depends. If the person who took it out of context, attacked me on a public forum then I would defend myself on a public forum. If they chose the discretion of a private email, then that's the route I would use.

I do this in my real life too. If someone pulls me aside and has a quiet one to one word with me then we sort it out quietly between us. Attack me in public, then the gloves are off!conversing

i think it depends on what was said between the two posters on the boards... if one misread the others meaning wrong and because of it called her this that and the other publicly and then afterwards relized she was wrong but did not say that to her in public... then if i were her that got insulted private mail wouldnt mean nowth...
