RUDE COMMENT BY YAGINKA
|
Hi everybody! I �ve just read this comment on my last contribution:
posted by
yaginka
You
haven�t been helpful at all!!!! When you�re looking for a material you
don�t necesarily have something to comtribute straight away. I wasted
my time registering only to learn that I cannot download what I need
before I contribute! Well done! I�d have saved time actually creating
the material instead! I wanted to share it with everybody. I don �t think this is a suitable comment.
Yaginka: We all work very hard to contribute and the goal of this website is SHARING. If you don �t feel comfortable with it, that �s fine. There �s an easy solution: create your own materials and save time. By the way, I would appreciate if you weren �t so rude.

Hi nessita77
Unfortunately these type of rude comments are becoming more frequent. Yaginka didn �t understand the purpose of this website, but don �t worry too much about that. You know that you can �t count on us for everything you need. Keep up the good work.
Best wishes

Some people are so cheeeeeky, and they don �t realise how long it takes to create nice material...
I �ve experienced it at work, always asking for my material and never giving anything in return. Sometimes, my material has even been taken with no permission, so ...I suppose it takes all sorts...if their conscience is clear. I know mine wouldn �t! |

You �ll have to wait until tomorrow so your material is shown to us and then we will decide whether we like it or not, and if we do we will download it and you will get points and you will be able to download. Just be patient! |

As stexstme says, just be patient. If I �m interested in your material I �ll download it and other people will too. If not, you �ll have to keep on working to design better material. This is the way it works here...and believe me it �s great and once people start downloading your material (again if they are interested in it, no need to advertise it)you will feel more motivated to go on creating. This web is kind of addictive...but a nice one.

I think that it �s a good idea that in order to download something you have to contribute because otherwise some people would just register to get things and not give anything back (like it happens in many other boards) That would be unfair because preparing one worksheet takes lots of effort and time.
I �ve learned in my life that some people are just like leeches, taking, taking, taking. In the past I couldn �t say no if someone asked for a favour or something but now I don �t have this problem. If I know that a particular person is just trying to use me I say no and I don �t care if he/she feels offended or not. (that was small digression concerning livepuliana comment)
To be sure that no one takes it in a wrong way. Writing this I didn �t have in mind any person from this board. Just general ranting.  |
