I was self-conscious too, then me being being, I got pissed off that somebody judged me, so I wanted to prove them wrong. I won't say that it doesn't happen. But I'm not the type to let others tell me I don't know how to play a class/job. I am very much like my character lol - hot-blooded, seeking self-improvement. But that's also just me because I do tend to get defensive and want to prove I'm better than what some say I am.
