    What would that include in your understanding of "niceness"?



    Ha! difficult one... It's hard not to seem rude in a forum... Try always to adorn your answers with nice comments that are irony-free...

    In my work (3 meters at my left hand, right now), there is a girl who thinks she can develop (but she can't. In fact, she is one of the worst developers I've ever met). Some of my mates, are rude to her, and mock at her sometimes. It is not she doesn't deserve it, as she is sometimes loudmouthed... but I use to be nice to her, and explain her things like if she was 9 years old (she is 28, she had enough time to learn properly xD). Everything is easier this way, she is happier, and she can't say I'm mocking at her... although sometimes its like mocking...

    Sometimes it is more important the way you say things, that what you are saying... but try to avoid being -> pedulant <- (edit: I meant pedantic. Does pedulant exist in english?) nor badly-ironic... You might feel you are true, and you might be, but it is not that important...

    Why do you think is that? That's the most interesting question here I think.



    Simple. Because it reminds a RTFM. I feel everyone should ask less and search more (not here, everywhere). But sometimes it's better not to answer at all...
