It could be that Dr. Bob doesn't consider it civil to criticize others. Expressing frustration should be fine. In fact, Dr. Bob asks that people express themselves in terms of their own feelings, without negatively characterizing (or criticizing) the other person.
There are some things that can't be said here. If you want to say something unpleasant *about* another poster, that probably can't be done in the civility guidelines. But I suppose I don't see why conversation is brought to a stop if one can't say something unpleasant about another person. Can't the discussion remain on the topic without getting into personalities?
