Tapping the tank and educating in the chat box

Annoys me so much. If someone calls a 4-bet for their entire stack with KJ and gets lucky, don't start calling them a fish in the chat box, telling them that calling 40bb off with KJ is a bad play long term, etc.
Just saw exactly what I've described in the rebuy open from a regular on the site, who should know better than to
1) Educate the people who are going to be profitable to play against long term whilst sat at the table with them.
2) Abuse people in the chat box.
3) Have such bad manners considering everyone on here is over 18 and is supposed to be mature and know better.
Why the **** do people do this? Abusing and educating losing players at the table is stupidity at it's finest.
Rant over.

Yes you have morals bla bla bla you've brought it to the attention of the community zzzzz.
Sometimes people get tilted and say stuff, happens.
I think most people has at sometime said something maybe they regret in the chatbox after taking a bad beat at an important situation ,(which this was).
Nothing i read was that bad , sarcastic maybe ,rude no.
I think maybe you insinuating that the player in question is a fish/losing player on this forum is just as bad as what was said.
It may not have been the worst abuse ever at a table, but nonetheless, it's still unnecessary. What does tapping the tank and telling the villain they did something wrong achieve? Either the villain thinks "This community aren't very nice, I'm going to play on another site instead", or they remember that someone abused them for getting 40bb in with KJ and don't make the same bad play next time.
Either way, it achieves nothing.
Also, I'm not saying that the player in question is a fish - Even if I was, then I haven't named the villain, so I don't see any issue. Yes, they did one thing which was a bit fishy, and in hindsight, they would probably admit that themselves.
My problem is that if the player who loses the hand perceives that player as being a fish, then why on earth would you tell them and abuse them about it?
Also, never educate anyone how to play poker, every time someone posts in the poker clinic, teaches someone how to play etc, its like burning money.
lol -
Wasn't me was it Pingu? Think I may have reacted to a beat where the guy made trip J's when I had him dominated not long before the bubble, but don't think I said anything out of turn.
