This was just brought home to me yesterday when I learned
that someone I knew online
just killed himself.
This really hit home.
Please remember. When you deal with someone online, that is a real person, with real feelings and possibly real problems. Think twice about that before hauling out the flamethrower.
(I had planned to meet Ben Kosse in person next summer. That won't be happening...)
Oh, and I would like to give a special thank you to ybiC for reasons that should be obvious.
