I wish people who post to forums would remember that there are living, breathing human beings on the other side of the computer moniter w/ genuine feelings that can be hurt.

And words can hurt a lot. I believe people will type things onto a forum that they would never dare say to someone's face, things that are incredibly insensitive.

Is this a reflection of who they truly are inside or just lack of impulse control, I sometimes wonder.
