Hey everyone :), how are you? I was reading a couple of CF blogs. And I was thinking how much is it awesome to have a great community in one place. and I wanted to know your opinion on how did codeforces community help you or affect you? is it inspiring , motivating ..etc? or even nothing ?
I solve CF problems every once in a while, but I never really interacted with the community itself, but I am looking forward to.
I hope you all are good and have great time ^^. Peace!
If you post a question you would most probably get a response, but you would also get lots of downvotes for unknown reasons (from my experience)
One useful response in 1000x more valuable than 10 downvotes.
Yeah. I also remember someone told me to send him a private message to explain my solution to him. it was a unique one. and he didn't reply. :D :D
Once a guy sent me a response to this blog via a private message. His response was very long, good and useful. I asked him why didn't he put it in a comment so everybody can benefit, he told me that he's afraid of downvotes.
No wonder why Facebook chose not to make a dislike button.

You can post your questions to your own blog.
And by your own blog s/he meant, goto your profile and find write blog post link.

The Codeforces community behaves in a mysterious way, specially with the votes.
It helps me by giving me a heck of negative contribution points.
