Everyone offers advice based on their experience - the person asking for advice has to process all inputs and then decide what is best. Whether it is an internet forum or a physically present group doesn't matter. Maybe I have been frequenting the forum less, but just lately, you really have been posting more critical/negative comments than usual.
You message sounds like:
Stop asking for advice/opinions.
No point in asking questions? Really?
