Maybe that's part of the problem? We keep the noise level very low here. Ditto most other actively moderated boards. You're spoiled.
I just scanned alt.linux.* and comp.os.linux.*. I would centainly not paint them with the same brush. The noise level was much higher in the alt groups. I don't find that very surprising.
Could it be that you previously read comp.os.linux, then took a break, then went to alt.linux think it was the same hierarchy? That might cause a bit of a shock.

ctrlaltdel
CTRLALTDEL(8) Linux Programmer's Manual CTRLALTDEL(8) NAME
ctrlaltdel - set the function of the Ctrl-Alt-Del combination SYNOPSIS
ctrlaltdel hard|soft DESCRIPTION
Based on examination of the linux/kernel/sys.c code, it is clear that there are two supported functions that the Ctrl-Alt-Del sequence can perform: a hard reset, which immediately reboots the computer without calling sync(2) and without any other preparation; and a soft reset, which sends the SIGINT (interrupt) signal to the init process (this is always the process with PID 1). If this option is used, the init(8) program must support this feature. Since there are now several init(8) programs in the Linux community, please consult the documentation for the version that you are currently using. ctrlaltdel is usually used in the /etc/rc.local file.
