This is not ok in my opinion,

Poster 1: "2+2=5"
Poster 2: "you're an idiot"

Or

Poster 1: "News is spelled N.E.W.S."
Poster 2: "you're an idiot, you said 2+2=5"

I totally agree with 1 and 2.

Number three needs context.  The poster who says the same thing in multiple threads should be OK with someone bringing it up to them.
