This is probably not even necessary but I feel like writing it SO I'M GONNA WRITE IT
I think new members don't understand why TSR members are harsh. They find it unwarranted and offensive. However, besides the extra push to work harder, you have to think about it in their perspective. This place shows the example time and time again that art, age and personality all seem to correspond with each other. TSR likes their high standards. I like their high standards. It makes this place enjoyable. Normally, when a new member's art isn't up to par, members get on the offensive to push and prod. It's a -test- of the new member, because this place SHOWS ALL THE TIME (it's its own proof~) that bad art=immature person. Of course this isn't always true. They're weeding out the people who fit this category. It's a -completely necessary- operation. If they thought I sucked they would've done the same thing to me but I would've understood and pushed forward. Once you prove yourself, then maybe they'll ease up. They might still be straight-forward but less aggravated-sounding. This is a good thing. Then new members think, I don't have to prove myself to anybody! Um, yes you do. Why else did you come here? These people know what they're talking about. This is THEIR place, you have to create your own standing.
