PostI Love You Guys, But Please, Try to Follow This Rule

Okay, it's not really a rule, but this bothers me. When a new member posts a creation, they don't really understand what's going on. "What do you mean by origins?" Sometimes, they make small mistakes. "Cat Name: Ninjabeast" "RP Sample: beaststar left camp for fourtrees leading his clan behind him he twitched his tail waiting for the perfect time to go into the hollow"

I appreciate everybody helping. I love to see you eager and ready to educate newer members about how things go here! ^^ But sometimes, you appear rude when correcting the new member. I realize that after being on here a while and learning how to role-play and what to name your cat and create its appearance, somebody doing it totally wrong throws you off. You look at their creation in a, "What in the world is this?!" Honestly, I do that sometimes. But people like you being nice.

People are way more likely to follow what you say when you put it nicely. If you burst in saying things like, "No, you're doing it wrong, it's like this!" and "No! You can't have that name, it's ridiculous!", they're going to freak out and not like us. We want them to like us, so we can get to know them and find where they live so we can have a better experience and reputation on this site.

Originally, I was going to tell you guys to just not post in creation topics at all. But I love and trust you, and I believe that you can be kind and "motherly" towards new members with their creations.

Have fun, and RP on! ^^

P.S. Here are some good and bad examples.

I try not to yell at the new guys, it's not their fault they just don't know the site fully yet. After they make an account, they can always check out the rules and fix their mistakes on the creation, along with a little help from everyone X3
Yeah, me too. I'm not that much of an old member and I remember how it feels. Some people don't know what 'rp' means too. I sure didn't!
I've started to see some really new members start correcting other new members' creations. I don't find this very... fair, I guess. I think that members should at least be here for a month before they start correcting.
