Being a little kind towards newbies won’t take anything away from us. As a sub, we should be guiding the new people entering this sub rather than scaring them away by being rude.

A lot of newbies entered the market when it was pumping, and seeing the value of your investment plummet like this really scares the hell out of everyone. It doesn’t help anyone to scold and taunt newbies asking about the bear market and belittling them by saying shit like “if you needed your money back so soon, you shouldn’t have invested in crypto” or “if you did your own research, you wouldn’t be scared like this now”. Even if that's true, there are plenty of nicer ways to say it and we don't need to be driving away newbies who will ultimately help grow the market. We are all in this together, that is the whole point of decentralized finance.
