BINGO

Since this post will be current until January, thought I'd be salty/have fun with it. Let's see if we get Bingo, shall we?

NAYRT, but if I shrug someone off as a kid, it's not because I think it's an excuse for their behaviour so much as I don't want to be the kind of person who yells at children on the Internet. They may well be still in the wrong, but it's just not my business.

Most of the time, these people aren't 'yelling at children' but rather complaining about it on blogs like DR and the Saltmines, and here. Many times, these people haven't even posted on site to the person in question, they just want to vent.

To me, I think the issue is that the 'but they might be a *kid*!' sounds a bit too close to 'kids will be kids' that is often used to excuse behavior that SHOULD be stopped.

Also, as an aside, I thought I once found a place that said, but can't find it now, but what do the acronyms NAYRT and the like mean (I am pretty sure they are about replying and identifying people, but acronyms and me? Not friendly at all)

Thank you, I knew OP, but Nayrt and Ayrt always throw me for a loop trying to figure out what they meant. (I could guess that YRT was you replied to, but the first letter or two didn't make sense)
