I've been reading up on the Summer of Love blog posts, with the latest being "hunting of the snark". Though, if one is to make a change in comments and phrasing to welcome new users, shouldn't the place where users come for help reflect that as well?

7Why does that have to be mutually exclusive?– FlexoAug 3, 2012 at 15:13

10This has to be a place for debate, period. If a friendliness requirement destroys that, there's no point in Meta being a place to discuss site policy. However as Flexo notes, I don't see these being mutually exclusive. Civil does not mean "I have to agree with you"– Ben BrockaAug 3, 2012 at 15:28

1Are you addressing something specific? Even the tired old off-topic questions of new users or of those circumventing a ban usually end up getting a couple of instructive comments. True, debate can perhaps get quite opinionated and somewhat heated, but not to an extent that goes too far IMO.– BartAug 3, 2012 at 15:59

7Meta is the place you go to die. And you'd want to feel the burn of a thousand suns entering your neck and ear holes instead of having a pillow smothered over your face while sleeping. Well, depends on how you want to go.– randomAug 3, 2012 at 16:10
