My phone apparently won't let me quote twice. Billy, I recommend TPP to people all the time, I'm still in love with the site and over the moon it's grown. I've learned a great deal here and will continue to do so.
Tpp was always about elevating skill, imparting knowledge, and having fun. In a spoken conversation the people involved have the benefit of tone and inflection. It's pretty easy to misread a post on a forum without those benefits. If a member is new to constructive crit, overwhelming them could happen easily.
Learning any new skill requires desire and tenacity on the part of the person acquiring the skill. However, not everyone has the constitution or desire to undergo being spoken to as if they were an idiot. It isn't always ego. Inexperience and lack of understanding factor in as well.
PS. If you can, try your hand at giving some of the others a bit of feedback. If you already have, thanks, can you do some more?
