The anonymity—or perceived anonymity—of online conversations can embolden even people who consider themselves pretty polite in person, making even the tamest folks prone to arguing with their digital nemeses. In fact, research conducted by VitalSmarts reveals that, among 2,698 respondents, 88 percent believe that people are less polite on social media than in person.
Worse yet, 76 percent of those polled said they had personally witnessed a social media fight. While it may be tempting to tell your annoying neighbor, humblebragging Redditor, or Twitter troll why you’re right and they’re wrong, doing so is an undeniable etiquette faux pas, and, thanks to the nature of the internet, one that might follow you around for some time.
