There are times when I can feel like an idiot because I, writing in good faith, made an honest mistake and someone corrected me politely. That shouldn't warrant a report to the Staff. If they made me feel like an idiot for missing the point by, for example, posting only an image with a filename like "numbskull" (you know who you are), that seems more actionable.
Like some others in this thread, I post less than I used to -- partly because I really don't know as much as I want (I've been corrected enough times, thank you) and I can learn plenty by just reading. Other posters often express what I'm thinking so much more clearly, and it's not really worth it to me to just post "I agree".
If I'm reasonably confident and relevant with my contribution, and I'm not overly repeating someone else, I'll post. Otherwise, I'll just observe and learn what I can.
