We've had a couple of incidents recently where people have started being quite confrontational and generally unpleasant to other users. I don't want to call anyone out or mention any specifics but can everyone read and understand the SE [community "Be nice" policy](https://meta.stackexchange.com/help/be-nice):

> Be nice.
> --------
> 
> Whether you've come to ask questions, or to generously share what you
> know, remember that we’re all here to learn, together. Be welcoming
> and patient, especially with those who may not know everything you do.
> Oh, and bring your sense of humor. Just in case.
> 
> That basically covers it. But these three guidelines may help:
> 
>  1. **Rudeness and belittling language are not okay.** Your tone should
>     match the way you'd talk in person with someone you respect and whom
>     you want to respect you. If you don't have time to say something
>     politely, just leave it for someone who does.
>  2. **Be welcoming, be patient, and assume good intentions.** Don't expect
>     new users to know all the rules — they don't. And be patient while
>     they learn. If you're here for help, make it as easy as possible for
>     others to help you. Everyone here is volunteering, and no one
>     responds well to demands for help.
>  3. **Don't be a jerk.** These are just a few examples. If you see them,
>     flag them:
>  - **Name-calling.** Focus on the post, not the person. That includes terms     that feel personal even when they're applied to posts (like
> "lazy",      "ignorant", or "whiny").
>  - **Bigotry of any kind.** Language likely to offend or alienate    individuals or groups based on race, gender, sexual orientation,   
> religion, etc. will not be tolerated. At all. (Those are just a few   
> examples; when in doubt, just don't.)
>  - **Inappropriate language or attention.** Avoid vulgar terms and anything    sexually suggestive. Also, this is not a dating site.
>  - **Harassment and bullying. I**f you see a hostile interaction, flag it.    If it keeps up, disengage — we'll handle it. If something needs
> staff    attention, you can use the contact us link at the bottom of
> every    page.
> 
> We're proud to be a large, user-driven space on the internet where
> name-calling, harassment, and other online nastiness are almost
> non-existent. It's up to all of us to keep it that way.
> 
> **In summary, have fun, and be good to each other.**

**Generally I think we an incredibly open and helpful community** (much more so than other communities on the SE network <sup><sub>cough...Stackoverflow....cough</sub></sup>). So I don't think we have a big problem but there seems to be a slight trend towards not being as nice as we should be. So I wanted to prompt a quick reminder for some of the newer members. 

If anyone needs any support I'd recomend they visit the chat room (**[The Base Camp](http://chat.stackexchange.com/rooms/2291/the-base-camp)**) and ask one of the regulars in there
