Indeed. The anonymity of internet forums in general leads directly to a
decrease in civility -- because there are no repercussions.

In a traditional, face-to-face setting, a person would risk getting
punched in the face (or worse) for the kind of language and behavior
routinely exhibited on the 'net.  At the least, one would be shunned as
an undesirable.

That's not really possible online, and socially maladjusted people take
advantage of it, unfortunately.
