Use the criticism you receive to improve yourself and become better in the future. Feeling hurt may be a natural thing because at that time we have tried the best thing in our opinion. But also don't close yourself off, because there are also lots of smarter and more knowledgeable people here. so take it as a lesson.
Just think of swallowing bitter medicine, it doesn't taste good, but the medicine can cure or save us from disease.

Naturally nobody will happy when he or she is been criticised but for me I don't see it as a bad act I see it as a way of correction and it also encourages me to gain more knowledge about it.
We are all here to learn and gain more knowledge about Bitcoin and cryptocurrency when u are been criticised try and outline those mistakes you have made and learn from there don't see it as a mockery instand take it as an advantage to correct your error and move on
That's probably the right attitude about it, but I would still say that higher-ranked members shouldn't criticize newbies but they should adequately correct them and make them understand their mistakes, this way, they wouldn't feel bad or think that they are being criticized just because they are not having a high rank.

If I see a newbie making a mistake, I would correct them and tell them their mistake, but doing that in a bad way would make them feel not welcome and I would never want to do that though I understand that people generally don't want to make them feel bad but some users might do it in a harsh way.

There is nothing wrong with criticism as a newbie but on the other hand I've seen people who would only say all the negative and actually give you no correction or even want you to learn, and we have to understand that most newbies before encountering this forum had no knowledge of bitcoin and came here to try to understand some things, it would be better that they they treated like wise as students and to be taught with love and care despite their shit, some have even experienced the tough side of cryptoaybe gotten scammed a few times before they got here so it not fair beign such a critic, I think the whole reason for a beginners board is to groom all the newbies if not there would be no need for it.

Before starting this topic so many things have been on my mind because I know how it pains for someone to criticise a write up or a post.

In a forum like this where so many intellects are contributing to a particular discussion there is always a room for criticism and the ability for you as newbie to absorb it as a learning process makes you unique and smart . For me Criticism is a process of learning because when ever I am been criticised I usually seize the opportunity to add more knowledge because I often see it as a corrective measures to widen my horizon .

Additionally, I will sincerely advice all the newbies who are quick to anger or discouraged when their post are been criticised to see it as a means of learning and not to react rudely because mistake brings correction .
True. But this applies if the criticism is constructive. You can almost tell when it's not. Well, I got your point and it's helpful

I understand clearly that criticism can sometimes seem as a discouragement to the person behind the post, but I'll want you to know that, nobody is an island of knowledge, we all started from the grass root to where we are now. Even those who have the knowledge can sometimes make low quality post that can bring criticism, having knowledge and expressing your knowledge are two different things, even some experts find it difficult to express their mind clearly so take criticism as a challenge for you to do better. When I first started this forum, I wast criticized and that made me to study more and expand my knowledge, it's something almost all of us, if not all pass through even in real life.

After entering a new world any person will feel a little uneasy while writing or replying. Besides, I don't see any reason to be insulted here. Remember, criticizing you will only make you popular. If someone says something instructive to you and you take it as criticism, you would be doing it very wrong. There are many legendaries who will try to convince you. But you will not be humiliated or belittled by it.
     
Apart from this forum discussion, criticism don't always make someone popular, criticisms have made so many life miserable, if you are been criticized you will want to prove them wrong that you are better, in this process, anything is bound to happen, criticism can be dangerous and it can also be a reason why someone will triumph.

It depends on the souls receiving the criticism, a great mind will accept all criticism as a lesson, a lesson to be strong and not back down because of what people say, but a weak mind will go down straight away just because people have use criticism to lower his spirit, if you fall under this madness it's your own fault.

If you can accept all levels of criticism like a normal thing, you have power over all humans, because weak people criticize other people, so as to stop them from going stronger or just to belittle them, accept it like it's nothing and move forward, people will always be people.

Now back to the forum, some people do need to be yell at for the way they create nonsense on this forum, when you are been corrected about your post, you should stop and make some adjustment, if you still continue with your nonsense, people like you shouldn't come out and talk about criticism, it's the way you see it but the problem is you, you choose to never learn.

criticism brings growth and rather than tagging it as criticism, it's best to look at it as a correction that should help you become better. Thier are lots of things that we probably feel it's the right way to do things in the forum that we later realised that it's not through the replies that looked as though we were being attacked.

No one grew from a newbie to whatever rank he currently his now without receiving some form of opposing views about things he thought was right that he later found out through those replies that he was wrong. Criticism will always come and in most instances you might not always like it but our just have to deal with it maturedly and learn from it and move on.

If you don't want to be criticised then you're definitely not ready for growth at all.

Its quite normal to get criticism not only this forum but everywhere especially when you're new to such environment, so the must essential advise that I offered everyone who does get angry or discouraged is in quote "learn to grow thicker skin" don't limit your self from knowledge because you got one bad response whereas there thousand of good response.

This has been discussed a million times but it keeps reoccurring because we are humans and every new person must experience it too, so as time goes on you will learn that because of the repetition of things most people tend to get pissed for answering one question several times hence responds in an unlikely manner. Due to the fact that I have experienced such I will just give one more advise to any newbie that might find it useful.
"You're not the first to get a NO in your first attempt so don't give up for nothing. Even the person who gave you criticism in your post got criticized too in their beginning days, so don't let that get into your head rather turn it to a learning motive and exploit the negative energy you receive thereby turning them to positivity."

You have rightly said, criticizings are more like a spark for corrections for you to become a better version of yourself, thou individual response differently when they are being criticized, why some think about it in some kind of negative way some tend to take advantage of it and become a best version of themselves, it is normal to feel wired when being criticized because we are humans but it shouldn't be allowed to take the best part of you rather it should make you to be the best person that you are meant to be .

Any newbies that already have the mindset of doing right will not take any response made on his post as a criticism, instead he will realized that we are on bitcointalk and everyone is free to talk his own, focus on what you're learning as a newbie, give your best in quality post, know about the rules of the forum and posting etiquettes, then you're fine, if you don't spam or plagiarize or post an off topic, you're more steps ahead in learning.

As a newbie to the forum, I can say that, regardless of my initial bad feelings, I didn't take the criticism badly afterwards. Rather, every time I thought that I would be criticized, I made myself brave by everyone's advice. Got everyone on my side.
But the most important thing here is what we are criticized for. When they realized that I was wrong or that my knowledge or information was wrong, they were criticized and corrected through discussion to point out those mistakes.But here no one can never say that one has asked for knowledge and he has been criticized.

And does everyone discourage or ridicule newcomers? If you get two negative comments in a thread, get ten encouraging comments to boost your morale, give you inspiration and courage. After all, five fingers are not equal, so it's ridiculous to expect everyone to respond positively or negatively, right?

On the one hand, criticism is also a very good quality, because if they do not point out my mistakes through criticism, how can I find my shortcomings? So in their mockery our mistakes come out which we can correct.
That's why I need to find the cause of criticism and expand my horizons of knowledge and face criticism with courage rather than avoiding the negative because, "It's good that something good comes out of the stain."

For those who are new to writing in the forum, the quality of the post can be funny or controversial at times. I used to listen to a lot of critiques too but I used to give them a lot of importance especially those who do the critiques must know a lot about the forum and have a lot of enlightening information in their knowledge. We must make many mistakes while posting, that's why those who are talented and knowledgeable must try to give correct information by looking at the post quality, so there are many important information in their criticism. So those who are new and inexperienced face criticisms but must gain knowledge from those criticisms.

Criticism is very important, it actually means that someone took time to go through your write up. So, I don't feel bad when my posts are being criticized. When I get such criticism, I always go back to my post and try to understand exactly where I am missing it. Criticism can make you better if you embrace it with an open mind and not get bitter.

At first as a newbie one will feel bad somehow though but you have to accept it with good faith. Critics have the right to criticize your work whether you deserve it or not. It doesn’t necessarily represent oppression but a right to openness.

· Some of the negative comments you read about your work are a reaction from someone that wants you to improve and do better.

· Considering the source (Who’s criticizing you is vital), the scrutiny can be from an expert with more ability and experience than you. They saw the flaws in your work and pointed them out, be wise and pay less attention to their choice of words and be teachable.

· Criticism leads to interactions between subordinates and provides directions for corrections. It’s more like a paradox.

· Ask questions after reading comments and feedback, and be curious to hear someone’s suggestions about your work. The learning process never ends.

· Most time, an expert criticizes your work to bring out the best quality and standard of a product, and no one is trying to punish you.

· One who is critical of your work can become a friend, a mentor, an accountability partner, or an inspiration.

That's the right way to take criticism, despite the tone of the person criticizing you or your post, you shouldn't take that personally and start personal conflicts between yourself and senior forum users because you won't get anything positive out of that. Even if a newbie thinks that they aren't wrong and are being criticized without any reason, they are still supposed to accept the criticism and respond with respect because that will show how mannerly they are.

You don't get small or lose your respect if someone criticizes you and accept it with grace. So newbies need not take this personally and just respond with respect so that they are given more respect the next time by the same users that have criticized them earlier.

There is a reason why they called it forum, interact and discuss what matter and just because you think you are right doesn't mean you are actually right. Everyone in the Forum is open to critiques, correction when they make mistakes, and call to order when the are saying inaccurate or spreading false information. I remember one time when I uses to confuse passphrase and seed phrase, I wrote so many posts repeating the same mistakes but when I get corrected, I revise some of the things I learnt and took the correction because spreading wrong information can hurt others.

You need thick skin to enjoy the forum, if you are a mama's boy, you will get annoyed by words here but as you stay here with time, you will begin to understand that everyone is entitled to their opinions, just because you feel it should be left doesn't mean others will agree with you. Some people will called for middle or right ; that's how the forum is and with time you will enjoy every moment of it.

Don't take words here too deep, you will get emotional and hate people but some people are just the way they are learn to accept them or kindly use the ignore bottom and go your way, it's as simple as that to enjoy the forum.

We see this discussion and this criticism in two ways. When someone does a good job, everyone talks about it, but if someone does something wrong, that person is criticized. It is normal for a new member to post something wrong in that post but if that person posts completely off topic then it is normal for other members to criticize his post. It is better not to post on the topic which is baseless. Forums have certain rules and regulations if a new member does not read the rules before posting and may be criticized for posting outside of the rules.  

When a member sees his post being criticized then there is no reason for him to be disappointed but he can be happy thinking that seeing his post is being criticized he has found out the mistakes in his question. We may not think like this when we are new, but we should think like this and it will increase our interest in the work later.

if my post is criticized I'll be happy because I'm sure there is something wrong with my post, it might be that my knowledge about my post is wrong, you should not be sad or angry if this happens because this is your chance to be corrected and learn what is right from the member of the forum, those who don't like critics are a self-centered person and will not grow, so the next you have been criticized be thankful because its an opportunity to learn.

I don't even wanna read anymore of what you wrote... For the fact that you're strictly against criticism, that infers that you're not, and will never be ready to learn.... WHAT DO YOU KNOW? THAT YOU THINK PEOPLE SHOULDN'T SAY NEIGH WHEN YOU SAY SHIT LIKE THIS??
If you had read further it would have been clear that the OP is not against criticism. His post was just an encouragement to newbies to accept criticism because it will help them in the learning process in the forum. I don't think there was any place in the post that the OP is strictly against criticism like your stated.

The forum is filled with members, who have grown with experience and are ready to share good knowledge and information about bitcoin and cryptocurrencies to the younger members .however, I will advice any newbie who is been criticised to take it as a corrective measure and learn from his mistakes.
The forum has one of the most knowledgeable Bitcoiners in the world. Some of the members have been involved with with from the early stage of the coin. The most credible information about Bitcoin can be gotten from this forum and one can hardly get wrong information from here if you are committed to learning.
