I got an email saying I was not worthy of giving help with coding saying quote...

"Before telling other how to type code and do stuff, learn to wipe your own ass first!"

It pissed me off. Does anyone here think I am worthy of helping others learn coding? Whenever people IM me and I help them they are all really grateful that I helped them and they all thank me and stuff.

I am saddend that people have this opinion of me

sounds like whoever sent you that email must be in fact the BIGGEST, GREATEST, THE MOST BEST, DBP coder out there, eh? aint no matchin that,,,if that's the case,huh?

i guess if that's teh case, we ALL better just think about hangin up our DB shoes...

otherwise, beyond that arrogant piece of mail you got....you've help me plenty of times in the past (& yes, i'm a newbie but we have to start somewhere) & if it's not for the help we get from users like RPGamer, where else we gonna get it???? at least when i received help from RPGamer, & others it was just what i needed, was not in anyway arrogant or slanderish.

keep up the GOOD work & trash that emil & never look back!

just my 2cents

You will find stuff like this in all aspects of life.

Some people thrive on negativity and like to pull ppl down in order to make themselves feel better.

Ignore it and realize that someones either showing jealousy or envy, its gotta be one of those or they wouldnt have bothered to email u.

In essence u can look at it as a positive thing.

Anyone who tries to stop u helping out must have major issues. dont carry that on board its not your problem u attracted a "3k".

I myself have had some "3ks" try to msn me and forever interupt and talk about nonsense.

it happens, just ignore it but record the details if it gets out of hand for later.

Don't listen to a word that piece of crap mail said. Hell, I haven't even been programming for a full month, and cuz of you I feel like I can make Final Fantasy 12. Keep doin what makes you feel good, if you like helping out then keep at it. Don't let punks discourage you.

Just when you thought life was done beating your sorry ass down, it invites friends to help.

Thank you I just try to help others, and they think I help them very well. Sounds like some noob who just played FFX and is wondering how come our game isnt equal to it.

Thanks guys

PS: In the return email, I asked for his forum name. Lol, he wouldnt tell me Im off to find someone on the forums with the same email

Disregard RPG, the people you help appreciate it, and that's all that matters. You can't please everyone, you can only help when you can - most don't even do that.

I imagine it's someone with a grudge and has nothing to do with any advice you've given someone.

Quick idea, do a Google search for his email address, you might be able to identify him that way .

Just don't look that way

wwwwwwwwwweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

(sorry about that, just needed to wind down from a 5 hour long coding session were NOTHING WORKED!!! Stupid collision hasn't worked for a week...)

And to anyone who's listening: There are ppl like that all around, just ignore them. The only way they survive is to climb on top of you by putting you down. So let them survive, in the long run, you'll end up better off.
