Every time I get a snarky, rude and shitty response from a user. 9 times out of 10 it is from users with hundreds to thousands of pointless karma points. My best guess is that it has really all gone to their heads and because of their high count, they think they’re speaking the golden words of the gospel with every comment that they make.
That nothing can touch them and that they’re validated so they can’t be argued against.
Its because the more you read and comment the less patience you have.
It might be your first time saying something stupid but for someone who has been on the community for a long time they may have seen the comment hundreds or thousands of times and are to tired to give it a soft understanding response. Mix in the fact that some people making the “stupid” comments are intentional and malicious in their intent and you end up getting old-head users who come off bitter and snarky.
