camp...

Some people are more intimidated by non-polite postings than others.  I am 
aware of people who were quite turned off by aggressive language (and have 
been turned off of sage development because of it...think of Simon's 
example, and he is probably more thick skinned than most) and asking that 
everyone play nice is hardly a radical approach.

While I agree with the sentiment that the right approach is to "not feed 
the troll," this works only in (say) 90% of the cases.  What do you do with 
the other 10%?  I hope that the community will speak up and say "hey, play 
nice" but often this doesn't happen when it should and even that might not 
be enough if the damage is already done.
