User blog:TheAtomicLight/The fan and the editor

It seems to be a frequent case that if you are a fan of something it justifies your presence. So it doesn't matter if you are a bad editor or not, simply being a fan is good enough.

Well, the truth is you can like Scooby-Doo until you are blue in the face. Your a fan who really want to help. But if you're not a good editor who's unwilling to get better and take advice from me (the admin) then you are no help whatsoever. I do try and help you guys out and some of the time you're willing to comply, while others are either too lazy or just don't want to be helpful at all and choose to just ignore. Well you can ignore me, but it will just get you banned. And of course you can remain ignorant to that ban, but it won't get you anywhere.

So you can be a fan who wants to edit, but you also have to be aware of how bad of an editor you might be and that if I try to give you advice then please take it. And I do mean take it, and not just say yes to get unblocked because you'll likely only do the same bad edits that will envitably get banned again.

I hope this helps those that want to actually want to be a good editor that brings good edits to what you like instead of just being the fan who really can't get anywhere because they basically are bad and can't be bothered or just plain refuse to get better. Does that help any of us? No, of course it doesn't.
