Decribe a most polite person you know?
A good friend We met during an internship She's tall, slim, pretty, always well presented (clean fresh looking hair, bit of make up, smart clothes, well groomed and maintained nails). She's very polite because she is considerate of other people, she goes out of her way to make them feel comfortable and she is gracious and has a friendly and pleasant attitude.
I see very nice and polite people on Quora. Why don't I see in real life?
Firstly, your notion is not entirely true.I have seen some of the most disgusting people on Quora too..from the perverts who mistake it for a dating site to the ones with political agendas to protect.Don't even get me started on the people who roam on Quora eternally "Anonymous"!!But yes, these creeps are rare.Most people seem to be nice on Quora bcoz..Quora dictates so. It is very easy to report an user or delete a mean comment.People don't 'add friends' here. Instead they get followers and get to follow people with real knack for answering sensibly.It's a win-win situation on Quora. Even if you don't get the Upvotes, you surely would get to know something new everytime you surf here.SOME people have business motives.. From promoting their blogs to smartly enticing you to visit a website.Quora has lots of real good people who behave equally well in their lives. They set up the tempo for everyone else to behave equally well.Most importantly,Unlike sites like Facebook, users do not just read the content, laugh and forget.They ponder over it, even add it to their reading list and definitely give a quick glance to the 'author' name and bio.In other words,Your behaviour and reputation on Quora does matter a lot.PS. I have even been traced back to Facebook by Hooligans on Quora who didn't like my review for their app.So much for nice people! :(

What is the difference between being nice and being polite?
"Nice" and "polite" overlap. That's why we don't distinguish between them most of the time.Nice refers to a characteristic of the person.Polite refers the behavior of the person in interacting with others.A person that does not cause others uncomfort or pain is a "nice" person. The person may not need to do anything more than smiling and tolerating others without complaining or objecting. This means being passive is sufficient.On the other hand, a person who applies good manners and the society's etiquette when interacting with others is considered a "polite" person. A polite person may be disagreeable or demanding but in a manner within the cultural norms and does not negatively impact the relationships.

And a person is polite and calm due to weakness.People with self confidence, secure upbringing or in a state of containment are usually polite.

Are you polite? What do you do?
I do my best, thank you. Good manners can be summed up in The Golden Rule, "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you." I find it humorous that you ask if the person is rude, and how are they rude! Most times, people who are rude either don't know they are or they don't CARE that they are. Have a polite day.
