| Aug 9, 2012 at 17:19 | comment | added | SevenSidedDie | Also relevant: blog.stackoverflow.com/2012/08/… Summary: Comments should above all be to help the user. If that means stating uncomfortable truths, so be it, but do it with care and be nice as possible without undermining the help. Rudeness is unnecessary here, but neither is constructive criticism automatically rude. | |

| Jul 18, 2012 at 17:36 | comment | added | SevenSidedDie | @JonathanHobbs Sadly Luke's persistence hasn't included learning to use SE (voting, searching, reading people's advice), or how to follow links people have left for him. If a user won't take basic help, they're literally beyond help and the best we can do is make them stop. | |
| Jul 18, 2012 at 7:15 | comment | added | doppelgreener | As the one who posted that comment: I am glad it was deleted and I am even more glad to see Luke persisted in learning. It was a comment made out of frustration and not patience (and blatantly a sort of "go away") and pretty much against the attitude a site like this should have. I would've rather posted telling him to persist (with learning, not in asking trivial questions) since they're not that hard, they just take time - the comments following mine were far more helpful and actually guided him in what to do to learn, and when he should actually ask a question here. | |
