That I would think goes for most MMOGs, or at least the ones I've played regularly.
The "vocal" communities, posting at forums, are often much more negative, critical and down right immature then many people you can find in the game (yet they can also be found in the game). THe reason for this is that the majority of players who are content/happy with the game rarely posts much at such forumes for various reasons (and they'll often be labled as "fanboys" if they do post)
So one should never judge a MMOG community by the vocal parts of it of a forum, but if one acts respectfull and mature ingame the likelyhood of finding similar people increases drastically.
