to offer insults
Se trata de una línea de ayuda para niños y jóvenes. Lo de "offer insults" no parece ser muy común al menos en la red no aparece mucho. De otra parte lo de "ofrecer insultos" suena terrible. Agradecería explicación más que una traducción literal

Non-PRO (1): Marta Moreno Lobera
When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.
How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:
An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)
A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).
Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.
When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.
* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

hacer propuestas ofensivas
El original dice "... share feelings and offer insults", por lo que entiendo que "compartir sus sentimientos y hacer propuestas ofensivas" está más o menos en el mismo registro, aun siendo opuestos en su sentido o carga simbólica.
Puedo imaginar que la intención del autor era justamente marcar esa oposición...
Mas allá de todo, considero que hubiera sido más correcto, por gramática y sentido, que en lugar de un "and" figurara un "or"...

No creo que sea propio de ningún país anglófono en particular.
