UGH! Quote from another forum:
I've been really sheltered and/or lucky on these forums; it's only every now and then I get a snarky comment, but it's like.. seriously? Seriously? I went into a NaNoWriMo chatroom for the first time in about two years and was pleasantly surprised.. the next day, people were being the biggest jerks ever for no other reason than they thought it was entertaining. Passive aggressive, and picking on things everyone was saying because they thought that other people weren't "experienced enough writers".
WHY do people think it's okay to be a complete jerk to total strangers? When all said stranger did was ask a question?
It's like.. Random ordinary person + total anonymity = total jerk face.
UGH UGH UGH.
Wait a second.. so you KNOW what you're about to say is going to be rude, you KNOW it's not constructive, but that's "just what I do"?!Sorry to be a **** here but it's just what I do.
