Re: Posts undeleted


I'm not sure what you think I'm trying to do exactly, so I'll explain a little more clearly. I'm not trying to insult you at all (nor do I think you're a newbie).

1. The newbie who posted didn't understand he sounded like a newbie in saying what he did.
2. You don't understand that you sound like a newbie when you say that you have to come down on "lazy" newbies "for their own good."
3. The newbie that was the cause of this discussion reacted poorly to a perceived patronizing attitude.
4. You are reacting poorly to a perceived patronizing attitude.

Now do you understand why the newbie reacted like he did or are you just unable to put yourself in his shoes?
