It's normal, and it's OK as long as there are discussion on arguments, and with at least basic culture. But it's getting hard here because of no more than 3 people here+"crowd psychology" that make many others behave the same after them. And it will not end, and will become worse and worse when more and more new people will come. The only way to control it is to define posting rules, which are absolutely clear. MAYBE it can go without classic moderation just informing rule-breakers about it. But i don't think so, as after some times there will be people that will ignore it, so moderation is needed. There will not be much job to moderator, on-topic FreeBSD questions volume is low. And will be kept low quantity but high quality.
