Alot of people don't remember also that tone does not necessarily convey across an electronic medium.. I tell people I know to 'go to hell' all the time with a smile on my face, but doing that on a chat channel might not have exactly the same effect as tone and levity don't carry over very well. I can't count the number of times people have misunderstood what I said, typed, etc, just because there was no way for the tone to be carried.... I've offended many people unintentionally this way..
