If playing with friends in a home game environment, I think it is important to make sure that the stakes are high enough to make the game interesting, but not so high as to ever put anyone in a bind.

As far as friends and enemies, for example, people on this site that we play against.  I enjoy making new friends, especially during league play.  Every now and then though, even on our site.  I run into someone at the table that feels the need to tell someone else that they are a fish, or be extremely arrogant in some other way.  I still don't consider those people enemies.  However, I really enjoy knocking those people out.  I always love how people playing on a freeroll assume that they are getting everyone's best game.  I experiment with different play styles during freerolls.  I also play super aggressive sometimes if I find out I don't have enough time to play till the end.  Online, you can never really know what is going on.  Someone might be playing in four tournaments at once, or watching TV.  I really don't feel like talking at the table has much of an effect online.   But if I were ever to play with someone like Kid Poker live, I would be totally screwed.  On the one hand, I would've known to not communicate so he couldn't get as many reads.  But on the other hand, it's kid poker, who wouldn't want to have a conversation at the table.  Obviously, I don't think I have that kind of skill right now anyway.  But I watched an old series with him last month where an amateur was staked 100k.  So of course I had to imagine doing that.
