What is your explanation?

apoorvk · Answer

Nvm. Depends on the public on a serious note.

parthkohli · Answer

For example, on OS, the 'smart' informal is great. By the 'smart' informal, I mean jokes made by such members:
across
nbouscal
Limitless
cshalvey

Ironically, they also happen to be my role-models.

Well, in my opinion formal tone is better to convey your message that you want to express to the audience/ reader. However, if it's informal it will make it friendlier. It however; depends on the audiencer/reader and in which circumstances
