Every social network can breed problems because this is how humans are - a mega colossal mixed bag.

And not just "this how humans are," but that people are generally more unpleasant in online interactions than in face-to-face interactions. We care about each other less, since usually they're just an anonymous person (or joker). Tone of voice and facial expressions are missing, so it's easier to make mistakes about intent and reply in kind.
