Is it weird to develop an intense dislike for someone based solely on the way they write and the way they choose to interact with people online?
Conversely, is it just as weird to really like and appreciate someone for the same reasons?

I think to let the healing process begin you should start by naming names, you may find it to be cathartic to do so.
I post as I talk and I assume other people do so I don't think its far fetched to take a dislike or liking to someone based on how they communicate through posting.
We need to punish the French, ignore the Germans and forgive the Russians - Condoleezza Rice.
I'm not putting on airs either, but there are a LOT more people online that dislike me than there are in real life. And there are few people I intensely dislike IRL yet I can count on two hands the number of people I wouldn't mind hearing are dead.
I don't actively hope they die, but I don't think it would be any loss if they did from the persona they present to the internet world.

I've only come across one person on the internet that I truly disliked. She reminded me of nurse Ratched from One flew over the cuckoo's nest. It's not this forum.
