You make it sound easy, but tone plays a HUGE role. "Do you need a break?" sounds waaay different than, "You need to tell me why you're ignoring me" (using different words because such subtle tone is nigh impossible to convey in text for the likes of me)
Asking is very much NOT "free" depending on how it is asked.
I assumedbasic communication skills because I assumed everyone is a grown-up.
Probably that's not the case for most adults
You are correct: Most humans have not matured past the age of 15, if online discourse is anything to go by.
Well I mean you yourself seem to not display good communication skills, so I assume you are underage?
Yeah that right there is a classic example of what we don't want. You haven't contributed anything to the discussion you've just made it go off the rails. Why is insulting people your go-to? It wasn't even called for, no one's even said anything that should have upset you. It's just weird.
feel free to contribute to the class discussion, you have proven a complete lack of communication skills by just calling me names without any explanation on why. Perhaps you should read on how to better provide your input in conversations?
And now you don't even show the reading comprehension skills of a 6th grader so you seem to be under the age ppl should be on social media.
So due to your lack of abilities let me spell it out for you: You yourself said that good communication skills are a must for adults, while displaying very hostile communication not beneficial of discussions. Then you project your own lack of skills onto others and post a link you yourself won't follow or haven't read.
I rly hope you are under 14 or you have a lot to get to.
I did provide a direct link for you to read about constructive criticism. you might call it passive aggressive, but it wasn't a "no you dumb baby cant communicate". unlike your response
Some people would probably benefit from actually putting their comments through an AI and then having it go "naw mate, don't post that."
