What is Politeness policy under Search Engines?

I am kind of dumb founded to learn about this politeness policy under one of the search engines webmaster tools.

Is the politeness issue refers to my blog tone or is it talking about repeated submissions of the web site URL or something totally different?

Under Wikipedia web page for Web Crawler, it has text as "The MercatorWeb crawler follows an adaptive politeness policy: if it took t seconds to download a document from a given server, the crawler waits for 10t seconds before downloading the next page." Now what does it mean? This is talking about something totally different about time and response.

I may have to hold on to this issue as I couldn't figure out what is what. If you have an answer to enlighten me please post it in the comments.

Thanks.

Rosetta Stone: 2125 Error Message

Update 2: It seems if you have an external sync hard drive or storage, setup to keep two computers in sync with each other, the tracking.db3 file will get corrupted. Even if the sync feature is only used on a single computer as a backup method and not connected to second computer. Make sure to exclude the Rosetta Stone folder in case you have any sync features from external hard drives, or service from dropbox, jungle disk, cloud storage or other file sharing application setup on your system. Update 1: Rosetta Stone has posted an update on it's website on how to upgrade. http://support.rosettastone.com/link/portal/14006/14042/Article/5527/Update-Instructions-Rosetta-Stone-Version-3-Latest-Application-Versions Original Post:  If you are using Windows Vista or Windows 7 then most likely the issue is with the permissions of the Rosetta Stone Software.

Google Mail Hangout Message Upon Delete Action

Don't know if I get annoyed this much as the Google's Mail Hangout Message, when I select to delete number or messages. " Because some are part of a Hangout, they have been removed from your Mail mailbox, but will still show up in other Hangouts apps and chat windows. " The message takes over the entire tool bar, and does not allow me to repeat the actions, it does not goes away until way late and would have appreciated but not allowed is a option to close. If I want to delete more items on the same page than i have to refresh the window to repeat the task. Wish the future update can allow me to close this message.
