Mentors...please!

[Thamorian]

The illustrations in this thread clearly show the big problem.

People are FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAR more likely to complain about something than give praise. No there isn't a big problem, what you are seeing grouping of complaints in a small area which gives it a magnifying effect. People making a mountain out of a molehill.

If Apple sold 50 million phone in a quarter (about average of what they actually sell during a non-release quarter) and 100,000 iPhones came out defective and being reported heavily on in tech media, 100,000 would sound like a lot but thats only 0.2% of the phones, less than 1%.

There are several thousand people who have unlocked mentor, both who do and don't wear the crown. You hear of what? DOZENS of mentors who are problematic? Um, ok, yeah it's a MAJOR problem. /s

This thread is not showing an illustration, it's showing an illusion, a few loud mouths who complain loudly because they met one bad mentor who left an impression and their friends told them or they read that all mentors are bad, giving a magnifying effect. You never notice or remember the good mentors. Human nature to more easily remember a negative experience.

Judge the individual, not the burger king crown. Mentors are no better or worse than non-mentors. Just because people spit in their face doesn't mean they have to stand there and take it with a smile because you see a crown next to their name.
