"It's simple" followed by an on-boarding routine more complex than some paying jobs I've had.

You are way out on the edge of the bell curve. You only want to play with similar people. That's fine. But own up to it and don't pretend it's friendly to newbies.

It's simple...

    1. do the tutorial, maybe watch a guide
    2. follow the dedicated onboarding track
    3. give people around you the benefit of the doubt
    4. point things out even if you don't know how to deal with them
Pretty reasonable advice for interacting with others in any capacity. If your jobs haven't provided stuff like this, maybe that reflects more on them.

Thats if you're sensitive to being flamed. I jumped in after playing against bots for 30s no previous TA experience and I was a complete terrorist for 5-10 games. Then I started just being a "bad" player and going unnoticed.
