I'm split on this topic, I've often asked a few questions and got very hostile responses & topic closed. On the other hand, some of my questions have been answered in depth by some very nice contributors; Jon Skeet being one of these.
In my opinion, it's just another unfortunate side effect of anonymity on the internet. It's terrible, and I wish people were nicer to each other.

- reitanqild 10y agoIt has little to do with anonymity: local newspapers demand you sign off comments with your Facebook account. The result? The only people that comment are trolls with fake account, people who have too strong opinions or don't care about their next job interview or people with "correct" opinions. Meanwhile I rarely see anyone here or at the Ars Technica comment sections suggest we nuke one country or the other (and if anybody do we collectively moderate them beyond ground level.)
