I am by no means a seasoned YTM but I dont really consider myself a noobie either.
I guess I feel as though everyone here deserves respect. There is no reason to personally insult anyone that comes here, long time memeber, breeder or a day or two new to YT.
Although I might not be a long time member, I am not a child and I will not bite my tounge if anyone is insulting me, no matter how long they have been posting in this paticular forum.
I have seen people be nasty on both ends here. |
I can understand your feelings. Having been a newbie myself about a million years ago I still remember how hard I tried to understand all the rules involved in posting messages here. I think Newbies are (also) frequently new to message boarding in general and may not realize how they come across. We depend on our facial expressions when we talk to others and one can't see facial expressions on here. When I see posts I disagree with I ask myself if it is worth alienating another member just to win an argument? It usually isn't. And as other here know I have told people when they hurt my feelings or angered me but without insulting them back. Then I leave. Bottom line - Play nice or go to time-out.
