I think you're interpreting the statement in different ways.

I think Evertjan means that people who are easily offended should not 
take part in usenet discussions, because they will be offended by what 
others say.

I think you mean that people who take part in usenet discuissions are 
often offended by what others say.

Both interpretations are correct, and are in fact the same, and speaking 
as a native english speaker, it's always a good idea to step back and 
think carefully about what a non native english speaker might mean in 
forums. Sometimes I have to sit back and work out if I really understand 
what the native english speakers are posting.
