It's funny how some peple blame the passive-agressivness to the ToS, some others to WoW players...

Truth is people have always been like that, long before either. The difference is that without the strict policies, people did both. Both people who straight out tell you to kill yourself if you fail mechanics and backstabbers used to fester. At least now the first type has to shut up because of rules. And of course the second kind are more something you meet as you join fcs/make friends than in a DF run, so to some people it may not be apparent and they'll say how perfect this community is. I actually quit twice for years because of how bad this community can be, so I'm both happy it got better overtime (unlike what some people say) and about the stricter rules.
