People are still just people, for better or worse, when they log on to the internet. Whatever you've learned in your life which applies to human nature is perfectly applicable on any website. There aren't any special exceptions on the internet for typical bad human behavior such as conclusion-jumping. There aren't any special rewards on the internet for typical good human behavior such as treating people with respect. Humanity isn't "good" or "bad" - it simply is what it is. Each human being is equally as valid as any other.
