Is the word "user" negative?

[A18718]

I guess the word user can be seen as negative because some users make the silliest of errors and then ask for help, which some mod authors find funny.

 

I myself wouldn't call myself a mod author (even though I almost have 1000 unique downloads on two very simple mods I made) but I think I'm an extremely experienced user/modder person (lol) because I can troubleshoot almost all of my problems, knowing what conflicts and what doesn't, if it's fixable or not.

 

So... basically, when you really look at it, mod authors may see the term user as negative because perhaps they run across some people who make the most weirdest of errors where they just have to sit back and think "gee how did this person manage to get this dumb" but then again... user is just a user and a mod author are users who create mods... Very simple.
