But I think there's also a reason why you and me are here and not on twitter or reddit and why the ones who aren't here aren't here

Very true. I've observed people mellow out a bit after being here for a bit, though.
I think there's a tendency to come in hot, because that's the norm elsewhere. Over time, the incentives of Stacker News shift behavior towards being more civilized.
You're right, though, that many people will never want to give up the ability to just spew cheap-talk into the void.
