What I would really enjoy seeing is a lack of questions that require snarkiness.

From my experience in what I've seen others go through, and what I've experienced with questions I've answered myself, is that a lot of people are not interested in hearing the *right* answer, they only want their own mis-guided ideas confirmed.

So, next time someone asks "[Can I install 60 instances of SQL Server Express onto a server with 60Gb of RAM running a 32-bit OS][1]", it would be really really nice that they would listen to you when you tell them that what they're asking is a downright dumb move. And after asking them a lot of questions, you discover that the root problem they're trying to solve is to avoid buying an SQL License, and they have some crazy idea that a 32-bit OS is more memory efficient than a 64-bit OS.

After running through the above scenario 10,15,20 times, with the same block-headed ignorance received back in 95% of cases, it's very easy to become upset.

Now, is that an excuse for being rude? No. Of course not. But it happens. And I suspect that rather than there being an influx of snarky answers, you'll find that the cause of the snarky answers is an influx of really poor questions, where the asker refuses to heed the expert advice they've come here for.

Unfortunately there's no real fix for that sort of behaviour, and as this site becomes more and more popular, it's only going to continue. So I suggest that you do as a few others have done (myself included), and **take a break**. Seriously. Take a week, a month, 3 months, off. Come back refreshed and ready to show that rep who's boss.

Just don't expect there to be any fewer crappy questions when you come back :)
