"Keyboard Warriros": Good or Bad Term?

I've heard the term "keyboard warriors" used in both good and in bad connotations.

Some use it to refer to those who are brave when posting, but hide behind their keyboards, who say nasty shit when online, but in reality are just wusses and would never be so brave.

On the other hand, I've also seen the term used as people who have been on the net a long time, or are veteran computer users, who know their shit, know how things work online.

What is your opinion?

mortal enemies on message boards are normally best friends at the shows...unless in some cases in which money is owed

the whole "you're a keyboard warrior....." thing never made any damn sense to me. Every single one of us here is sitting behind a keyboard. If someone is a pussy in real life, the keyboard doesn't change that one way or the other... it only allows you an avenue with which to bring your pussyness to the rest of the world.

For some reason that term reminds me of some script kiddie sitting alone in a dark room chatting online with that lame "l33t sp34k" crap. Anyway, just thought I'd share.
