Dude,
You are way out of line here.
Here's what I guess she thought....
Hmmmm.... I have seen Rod online a bunch today.....
I sent him a message....
He hasn't responsed.... I have never really interacted with this person.
So I don't know if he is ignoring me or what...
I don't see PM's as an intrusion at all. Why would you? Is your time too
precious to accept a message from another community member ?
Also why is a message posted in a chatter section impolite? Please enlighten us...
