One thing I've noticed among the high ranked members is, Each time a newbie (not referring to those only that has newbie tag to their profile) creates a post that is contradicting to the beliefs, most high ranked members always critise instead correcting or teaching.
I personally hate those topics that start with "we all know that [blank]...." and [blank] is usually a false statement or an FUD they are trying to say is valid before they continue with making a conclusion based on that.
not to mention that most of these topics by newbies are obvious shitposts.
I understand this fact more!
I can clearly remember way back when I joined the forum, MOD always send pm when I shitpost is made, and know it's possible continue with that because the forum has been over populated.
My question is, what are the duty of high ranked members?
This is a community and everyone is free to speak out their minds. However, it is my belief that we don't have a duty per se, but if you are going to look around there's a lot of seniors and up who are trying to help out newbies as well. Go to the
Beginners & Help and you will see that everyone is trying to help someone. The problem is that majority of newbies doesn't used the Search Function of this forum, or even used Google to get their answers. If ever a high rank criticise a newbie perhaps its constructive criticism. And remember you don't need to be spoon feed, one time or another everyone was a newbie and we grow by learning through the journey in this forum.
