This is an interesting quote from a magazine I read quite often:
| quote: | I feel that all too often opinions are tunrned into attacks, especially when it comes to forums and even more so, computer forums.
The classic scenario: a newbie logs on to a forum and is systematically shot down in flames by experienced members of the forum.
The newbie retreats with their tail between their legs, in some cases never to come back.
This behaviour has some interesting ramifications; none of the least being the forum grows very stagnant, reflecting on the opinions and knowledge of the few old timers.
Without the injection of new ideas, opinions and experiences, nobody will benefit - and just remember, even us technically savvy Atomican's were innocent, curious newbies were once too.
One persons perspective may seem incorrect or illogical, but this is different approach might spawn new ideas or techniques down the track.
If new ideas and perspectives are shunned, we will never know they even existed.
So next time somebody posts a seemingly idotic question or opinion, take a deep breath, remember that it wasn't posted just to annoy you, and construvtively offer reasons why this is incorrect or ask why they have this opinion... you never know, you might learn somthing. |
theres somthing to think about.
Thats my weeks post ;)
p.s. hope you all had a great easter break (which i spent working.. yay..) |

People like to belittle people based on the fact that makes them more superior to others.. but its stupid really... its easy to beat someone who is less experienced as you... :rolleyes: i see no logic there...

In all seriousness if someone who gets flamed is so upset they don't come back they need to get out more.
This forum is fine anyway. There are heaps harsher. |

its because the internet doesnt have a physical presence. i mean, if a 240 pound muscle beefcake were to walk up to a room full of ta's in real life and say where do i download the latest trance, do you think that room full of geeks is going to say 'stfu, newb'?
hell no, they're gonna be fumbling for pens and adjusting their spectacles in order to get the urls correct so that the muscleman doesnt come back later and beat their little heads in for writing down goatse.cx |
