I too have this problem when commenting on HN vs Reddit. When a badly phrased comment would be actually taken lightly on reddit here it gets easily misunderstood. That is one of the reasons I do not comment as much as I wish. I honestly think a small part of all this is linked to the cultural differences between different generations and peoples.
