There is a though:

Tips are normally handed by kind people with good intentions. So many
times I feel I could help others yet I do not even bother because I know
that a few people out there will try to insult me with the sole purpose
to make their limited knowledge greater than its potential. I can dig
that.

If a Tip works, thank the person who gave it to you, maybe even help
someone else. If it does not, maybe you should be the good guy and help
that person to become better really trying to help someone rather than
to make your self look superior or make someone look bad.

I think that professionals in the world of computers have much to learn
in this regard. Probably because it is a very young field with many
intelligent professionals with very few that have grown old enough to be
wise and pass this knowledge to their apprentices for the better.
