Human Nature

[EightySix Four]

I am constantly reading forums all over the net, and I notice one thing is a constant... No matter what is said, someone wants to challenge it or start a "flame war." Is this just human nature, to cause conflict?

Of course.

It is especially true when one has anonymity. I can control the number of times it interact with anyone on-line, so the prisoner's dilemma becomes a more real-world situation, so I can shaft people/annoy them very easily.

If we all met up to have a chat, the number of flame wars would be minimal.

Possibly only because they wuold end with a real fight, but.. heh.
