When People are Angry at Signatures

My phobia of forum signatures on music lesson forums probably came from a long time ago, when I was an inexperienced developer. Well, I had a music lesson site, and don't get me wrong, I'm good at music, but the site was sort of crappy. Therefore, when I placed the sig on a popular music forum, I was picked with no mercy. Anyway, they would have hated it just for being commercial, aside from being amatuer.

If you're going to promote anything, you have to be willing to handle the criticism. There's always going to be haters, no matter what type of advertising you're doing. You can't woo everyone.

That's true, but on this particular forum, the hating was particularly fierce. In other words, I got the picture. They don't like it.

I've used to be terrible at handling criticism when I started, but as time went on it learned that you can't please everyone, try as you might, and you just gotta accept it. The forum world, especially from the administration end, isn't always going to be sunshine and rainbows and I learned that the hard way.
