That’s rough. You could try a different website. Some communities are full of arseholes. There are some gamer communities that are just toxic. Nothing but insults and racial slurs all day long. The reason why I won’t play DOTA or League of Legends. Even your own team-mates rag on you and quit if you are learning.
barely though. whenever I’m stressed, I can’t. that’s why I don’t think I ever want to join a computer community again. almost made me dislike computers.
Looking at jobs, which programming languages are you learning? Usually I see them asking for C++ or C#. Sometimes java or matlab. Sometimes stuff I never heard about like hadoop.
My recommendation for joining new communities is spend some time observing them first - take a few weeks and just read the posts, get a feel for how the community works, what the rules and customs are, what subjects are appropriate. It might help you integrate more painlessly.
I know a meditation community called InsightTimer.com that is just beautiful. Everybody is so kind and wonderful and sweet to each other it is unreal. Regular meditation has that effect on people. It actually makes you more compassionate.
I wouldn’t give up just yet. Like @Rhubot said, maybe just lurk and read posts on another site and get a feel for it before joining. Could be that you just picked the wrong site to join. I have been thinking of joining a Christian forum lately since that sort of thing isn’t allowed here. Best wishes in whatever you decide to do.
I think that it is very good that you are able to study.
For me I stick to chess. I can win chess games against strong opponents barely thinking.
So for me its chess.
Don’t get discouraged!
You can ask for my help I will kick the ass (literally) of those who troll you.
I really wish you the best. As I said, do what you like, regardless of a job.
And don’t get discouraged!
And if you have problems tell me and I’ll help you.
