That might be a difficult caveat to impose depending on where the line is drawn, IMO. What Vailpass did was really no different than that except that it was a bit more colorful.

We've got a rule against rude comments in prayer threads and I could support an extension of this concept to cover any situation where a poster's real life challenges (whether they be the poster, his/her family, or his/her friends) are being rudely treated whether in an official prayer thread or not, but the Vailpass comment that sparked this thread didn't involve anything like that at all. People around here ought to be able to withstand redrum-style treatment of hypothetical loved ones.
