Reminds me of the time I asked a question about a Magic: The Gathering card tomy local game store's Facebook page. The card was Sublime Archangel. I asked what happened if it gave a creature Exalted that already had one. Someone sarcastically replied that it already says it on the card. I was a new player, how was I supposed to parse the phrase "If a creature has multiple instances of exalted, each triggers separately"? For all I knew that could mean that they didn't stack because they would need to trigger together. I didn't have the vocabulary to understand those things.
I try to remember this when explaining what I might believe are simple concepts to people because that person really upset me.
