I can see where your'e coming from, and agree with you except for one thing. It is difficult to accept reprisal when you ask a question. Granted, some posts deserve reprisal, but my point is that sometimes a newbie will make a mistake and mess up and then get flamed. It's different if he/she has been warned a couple times about something, and yet they still do it, but mistakes happen.
We were all newbies at one point (I still am in some areas) and I think that it is important to remember that.
Besides that, I think that you are right and that sometimes you just have to bite your toungue and take criticism.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
