    Default Why are people so mean?

    OMG I have been looking around on the site and when someone, most likely someone who is new, makes a mistake, there are all of these people and they are like "OMG are you stupid or sumthing? Why would you post this here? R U retarded or somethin?" Would it kill you to just nicely point someone in the right direction without making fun of them? There are some people that are very helpful and I don't mean to freak out on them, but some people just annoy me. It's not like anyone is perfect and has never made a mistake. So sad.

    Don't let me quote you when you jumped on a guy requesting a reseed to upload something, even though you use your 56k modem as an excuse for not uploading.

    Of course I won't let you!

    And I was going through a "Phase" if you will, of being angry at leechers. :

    Does this have anything to do with my post here? ( I noticed you also posted there whitelight)

    http://forums.emuparadise.org/showthread.php?t=40085

    because he clearly made two boards in two sections after being helped on the first board. I apologize for any offense that may have been taken by you or anyone else, I was just pointing out the rules and I pointed people to his other board so they could help.

    Further apologies to Darth and the Mods for the backseat moderating (I'll stop it from now on)

    I try to be helpful where I can. But unfortunately, my experience is limited, so I'm of little help. I'm more what you'd call 'colour' on these forums at least. But I don't jump on people unless they deserve it (if they ask the same question too many times despite having recieved several clear answers, if they go completely nuts if someone suggests something they've already thought of etc). But I do know in general about what white's talking about. It's not just here, it's all over the internet. The tendency of people to shout "OMG! n00b! GTFO my internets!" whenever someone asks a stupid question.
    When the sunshine,
    throwing me a lifeline,
    finds its way into my room,
    All I need is you.

    Well, telling newbies what to do in a polite way is enough, no need for things like "omg stfu n00b lol ur stoopid". But there will always be people like that, so...

    Um, I'll skip the 'faggot' part, not my style. But anyway, you just don't have to get angry because of people like that, not worth your time.

    And thanks, Darth.
