It depends what kind of community you have. I noticed that projects which have received a lot of hype tend to lose their thought leaders and they often end up with highly divided communities and opinions.
Also, when people jump on the hype bandwagon too quickly, they set themselves up for disappointment and discussions become more emotionally charged.
This is made worse by the fact that the most emotionally invested people are more likely to get involved in discussions.
