well, at least it's typically not rewarded, unless you already have tons of stake (which people infer as a social proof that you have a lot invested, so you have the right to be pissed, lol... )
Polite conversation is way easier to get rewarded than being a jerk, unlike in the outside world where if you are a jerk to someone on a forum, you can get a rise out of thinking of their discomfort from the rude remark... somehow "money" being involved makes us more compassionate, lol
