Stop blaming others for your short comings

or you can just not give advice it's not your place to tell someone to get better.

You're right and wrong.

While it's not your place to say "you suck get better", it is your place as a member of this games community to help others improve. Offering advice to assist someone, isn't telling them to get better, just as telling someone to get better isn't assisting them.

If your advice comes with the same tone as your post, it is no surprise they would snap back at you. Even people that like to learn don't exactly enjoy being taught, especially when they are being stressed or pressured.

This isn't a post about my individual advice giving. This post isn't advice in the first place, this post is a reality check to those that need it(though many wont care or see it). Actual advice should never be accompanied by harsh tones, and anyone giving advice with a dickish tone in game is just being a dick. Also, stating that some people that like to learn don't like being taught makes no sense. Even if you get your information from a book, or by trial and error, you are still being taught, as you are learning from the author, or mechanics in the game are teaching you to react.

And the most important rule in this game is is don't be a dick.

And how many people actually follow that "rule"? Some times is takes being a douche bag, to make other douche bags realize they're causing problems.
