Re: Seniors apply patience and kindness to newcomers

I have concerns about the interactions between experienced members and newcomers in this forum. Occasionally, some experienced members can be quite harsh and may forget that newcomers are here to learn. While constructive corrections are beneficial, it's crucial to avoid using harsh or abusive language.

It's true that some posts from newcomers may be of low quality or show a lack of willingness to learn initially. However, I believe that giving them a chance and treating them with kindness is a reasonable approach.

If you expect everybody to treat you with a soft hand, then it means you are not yet ready for a public forum, more or less a forum like bitcointalk that is globally connected. Because just as a wise man once said that "What Doesn't Break You, Make You", when people criticize your post as a newbie, it's advisable to analyze why a member said what they said about your post, and not take it personal, but rather work on yourself, get conversant with the forum & it's rules, and try to always be on the safer side, why you do more reading than posting, since you are just a newbie and you have a whole lot to learn.

You are right in there. Constructive criticism does not mean that people should treat you with a soft hand, either it’s a positive or negative comment for you, as long as it’s helpful for your growth and development in the forum, that’s already a constructive judgement. Otherwise, if you expect people to be always kind to you and please you as you want, you will never grow and learn from the forum. Sometimes, people need to be tough on you so you can learn your lesson the most effective way.

Sometimes being hard on some people is the best way they can learn something new. On a normal in a public platform such as this, one should know that there are lots of people with different ideology, orientation and perspective as well so one should not always expect response to always be in tandem with their services or activities here. Definitely there must be some critics here who feels what you have done is not good enough to be be a good one but rather you putting more efforts while some would applaud and appreciate your efforts. What is expected of one as a poster is to look into the criticism and take possible observations and work on it to build your capacity. There you are doing more good to yourself by acquiring more knowledge as a result of the criticism.

Lastly, there are people who do not learn soft but rather in the hard way. They only take corrections when people are hard on them. So therefore if such people exist here I believe they would find here very interesting and educative.
