I don't believe that's true. One of the great advantages of discussion
over the internet is that one's behaviour is what is judged, without
necessary prejudice from one's age, skin tone, facial features, or the
like. Set against the many disadvantages of internet discussion, I
think "judge only on basis of behaviour" is a good default.
