I was just getting fed up with seeing people who think that their way is the right and only way to go.
See, that wasn't what we were thinking at all. We love creativity and new ideas, but we consider characterization to be a basic thing. And well, I guess we get annoyed when it appears as though someone is just saying, "Yeah, screw that, I'll do what I want."
And that it is their "rightful duty" to take the poor, poor youngsters "under their wings."
Yeah, I'll concede that did sound somewhat patronizing. I've never been fond of the word 'newbie' because of the negative connotations, simply because, well, we've all been new to something. I think what she meant was to offer tips, explain how this comm works, since, obv, if they're new, they're going to know less about the normal way things work. I don't think 'newbie' should be generally a negative word, but that's how it comes across.

Haha, yeah, I figured that it was a joke. =D
