Given the ratio of ad hominem attacks I have experienced in my first
few days here versus true exploration, I was beginning to wonder if
the 10 people or so who have been responding are representative of
this group, since they do seem to generate the most messages.

Those who engage rapidly in personal attacks are the most active posters, but
are not necessarily representative. Personal attacks are very easy to
construct and thus can be launched very quickly. Rational argument or debate
is much more difficult.
