That said, strife, confrontation, arguments, war, and fighting are not always a bad thing. It is the final effort to resolve an issue that needs to be addressed. So, some of the...dramatic threads and posts are informative to others in exposing some things that might be going on that would otherwise never see light of day. They also tend to become "heated" discussions because of their very nature.
I think the problem is that people mistake heated discussions with personal attacks or do not understand the line between them. Some people do not seem able to distinguish between disagreement and hatred. I don't know if this problem stems from a personality trait, intelligence, over abundance of...passion, or something else. I guess the exact solution would depend on that answer, but it might help if people keep in mind that what they are reading are text on a screen, distance themselves from their passion, and read more carefully what they read than to run with their first reaction.
