Advice gone awry

[in_love_with_liszt]

Sheesh. Is it just me, or does it seem like alot of people on this forum are eager to try to make themselves look good by bashing other people, saying "you suck, you can't play that yet" with this attiude like "I know soooooo much more than you" without even knowing the person's pianistic experience? People! C'mon, offer real advice, it just makes you look like a jerk (that possibly doesn't know what they're talking about?)when you reply with advice like that. I mean of course this doesn't apply to everyone, but there has been certain "advice" I've seen given that really didn't seem so much along the lines of helping. I'll confess I went kinda nuts replying to that post bashing Liszt, but I think we can all agree it was a bogus post to begin with that was admittedly meant to get people angry. Maybe I'm just crazy. I thought we were supposed to be genuinely helping each other, not putting each other down or making a competition out of this...
