There is also the issue that communication via text is a lot different than in person. I
used to participate actively in a (now defunct) USENET newsgroup and there were a couple
of posters who seemed kind of nasty in some of their posts. Then I met them in person and
when they said the same sort of thing it was completely different thing - you'd see
the twinkle in their eyes or the smile and interpret their communications completely
differently.
