They don't SEE your failures, they only see your successes, "Just go do it" can look very daunting and frustrating to people at times.Isn't this the very essence of encouragement? To urge people to do that which is hard? That which is challenging but rewarding? To let people know that yes, its tough, but there is good reason to follow through?
It depends on how much they've tried. If they've gone and done it and it failed, really. Seeing "You need to have confidence and do it!" while good advice, can wear someone down after awhile if it isn't exactly working for THEM. What works for some people, doesn't always work for others, is the thing. Confidence falters.
I'm not saying new people try really hard and fail all the time, but I have a lot of sympathy for people trying to break into this community - especially now, I did it when the game launched, I couldn't imagine doing it now - and I've seen a lot of people leave frustrated and wondering if there was a way to help.
