I will be fair. I have been nasty plenty of times in the past myself, and am sorry for it now. This week end I was trying hard to be nice though. Sometimes I think that because we can't see/hear the person we are posting too, we may read something into things that are really not intended. Expressions and tones make a big difference.

I totally agree. That's why I like to add emoticons to my posts (not all the time, but when needed). I have a friend who I talk to over Instant Messenger, and she doesn't use the emoticons, so it's hard to determine her mood or intention at time during the conversation. That's one thing we may want to look into to pacify things around here.
