I think we're living in an age where the web is a place where you're(= one is) very vulnerable. voicing opinions is one thing but I see a lot of us are going the wrong way by ridiculing others and thus ourselves.
I bet you'd never say 90% of the things to the other, if you came face to face. Still we put a smiley behind our snide(half-snide, quarter-snide remark) to "get away" with the fact that I was having a bad day.
Worse will come out when people will stop doing the smiley thing but just wish you hell sincerely. Those are(can be) rather inflammatory, so one takes defence for a while and then bounces back at the first oppurtunity.
A moderated forum is a good place but provocations/inflammatory comments should be closely monitored.
So let's stop attempting to hurt one another.(applies to all of us)

Can I give you a hug tarry? 
Just out of curiosity where have you seen an instance where we've been attempting ot hurt one another? PM me if you have to.
To expaned on what Hanky was saying.... I also think being able to decifier someones writing style plays a big part as well.
