As a newer member there are some good guidelines here, but one is forgotten.
Empathy <> Internet
As a moderator on another board and user of many boards, I have determined that you have to consider the internet the same thing as highschool.
1. You have the Jocks who think they know everything because they have experianced it. But cannot remember the "rules" from OW class.
2. You have the Prepps, those who can afford all the new toys and look down on you because you do not.
3. The Geeks those who have read everything but have experianced very little.
4. The Bullies / clowns who ridicule everything, but add very little to the mix.
5. Most importantly the Croud. The rest of the group, who don't mind haveing a little fun, but have a good mix of street and book smarts.
Which one are you?
It only takes a couple of weeks to find the regulars and see where they sit. Just remember the chair keyboard interface is anonymous on most board.
