I am mixed, the internet does de-humananise people...heh for us furs we don't even want to be human.

Seriously however, yes it makes people less patient, they want everything *now, now, now* and yes they do think hiding behind a computer screen can mean they can say anything they want and it won't matter. I do highly value still having real social interaction in the real world, possibly why I enjoy being part of a community where there is a lot of oppotunity to do that.
