Why do I hate coders???

[BuildaBox]

I've always disliked a certain person here because they seemed so roostery and self centered when it came to coding, but I've recently noticed that any time I see pretty much anyone on here who codes I have some kind of negative reaction in my head.

I'm not really sure why, does anybody have some sort of psychiatric explanation? I'm pretty sure I'm not jealous or anything, I mean sure I guess it would be cool to know how to code but I don't even really want to a whole lot.

I think its because you want to code as well. Sort of an internal jealous reaction it sounds like. Not the kind you could self diagnose quickly.

I have the same issue with people who write good stories.

I think I know who you're talking about.
I can relate.

Somebody being roostery or self centered makes you feel ashamed for them, makes you want to avoid them I guess.

I have this problem with rich people.

Yeah, I think it's jealousy.

[Tetris]

when somebody is better than you, you usually just naturally dislike them

[Yosher]

i can totally relate to that

i can also admit it's just plain jealousy.
although i do know a person who flaunts it constantly and it annoys me a lot

I feel the same way, I know it's not jealousy because I can't stand doing anything tech related.
Though maybe I don't like the idea of it just because I can't stand doing anything tech related...

Probably because some show off some cool stuff but never actually plan to release them.

Yeah, well, I hate poor people.

There could be a feeling of disappointment, maybe even resentment, when you have an awesome suggestion, then someone tells you it's not possible or very difficult, or if they say they'll do it but don't

It could also be some random reason unrelated to coding that you dislike this person, but then you subconsciously applied it to coding and everyone else who does it.

It could also be because many coders I've found to be as the OP said roostery and self centered. It's obviously not all, but there's quite a few. I'm assuming it stems from the ability to do something not everyone can and it kind of happens in all trades of life.

I kind of agree with this. I know CNC Programming/Code, but don't go around gloating about it. Many "coders" on Blockland are full of themselves, but some are really helpful and love to make addons for people. If I had the time I could learn to code things for Blockland within a few weeks.

OT:
I think you're jealous of coders.
