Can you provide an example of an internet forum that you consider to be "positive"? HN has a higher level of discourse than any other discussion site on the internet. I'm willing to bet that the ratio of helpful comments to nasty comments on hn is as high as any site you could name. If you think HN is negative, you should avoid reddit at all costs. Put 4chan in your /etc/hosts, because the level of negativity there is enough to turn a sadist's stomach. Have you ever seen the comments on huffington post or npr? Compared to those places, HN is a non-stop praise-a-thon. I think the textmate comment is a great example. The commenter didn't just say "textmate sux!", he or she made a case and presented some kind of evidence for the claim of textmate being subpar. I don't think that people need to go out of their way to phrase things in the nicest way possible. If they don't like something, they should be able to say that without being labelled as "negative".
