Default Your forum "tone of voice"

This is something I've been guilty of plenty of times in the past so I'm not gonna be all holier than thou, but have you ever tried imagining reading some of your posts as if you were speaking to real life people and not just faceless pieces of text?

Wouldn't it be an interesting exercise that, instead of the usual, knee-jerk reaction of uncensored posting that we normally make when "arguing over the internet", we try to apply the same standards of decency, patience and politeness most of us accord to other people in real life?

Does your "forum tone of voice" match your real life one?
