Don't tell me what you don't like.
I'm not interested.

Because what you don't like is
simply what you don't understand.

Instead tell me what you do like.
Because that is what you understand.

That is what I can learn from you.

Too many people leave stupid comment. You want positive comment, they will leave you a positive but stupid comment. It's like the thumb up, it hardly say anything just like a thumb down. I appreciate the thumb up or down to have something for those stupid people having something to do instead of wasting words just to say nothing.


I always appreciate productive critique. Bad or good, a critique is people actually put thought into it. It could be a misunderstanding but they are telling you from their point of view. You can try to understand why they misunderstand or just ignore it. The point is you are the boss to respond or not.


Learn from the American "Free speech". Why it doesn't demand only positive speech is allowed. Or why it doesn't ban "hate speech" or harmful speech.


My point is don't tell people what NOT to say. Let them say it and you decide who to respond or ignore or whatever you want. Your post is for them to understand and their respond is for you to understand, it's a two way street. You do have the option of making it a one way street by turn off the comment all together.


I used to ask myself why I post stuff on here and my answer was I wanted to share and have people's opinion and some discussion... mostly for my enjoyment to discuss with another brain. I don't care all the "stupid" respond. My objective was the productive respond.
