Yeah.  The nonsense you speak of and those situations, can be heartbreaking. Like running a marathon, getting to the end, only to be greeted by someone who says, "Pff.  All you're doing is standing on a road.  These people are morons for cheering for you." 

Even worse when they claim you cheated and took a shortcut.  And it gets worse because some of those types seem to feel good about themselves after.  The whole thing is demoralizing but those aren't the types one focuses on when you have your own plan, goals, life; so you just keep going because that was only the first leg of the marathon.  As they become dust.

That experience should actually be a part of the Hive guides for content creators and the like wishing to build for the future *because it sure sucks finding out, the hard way.*
