It is somewhat like reading a magazine before you actually submit an article for publication. Many new users don't bother reading through some of the upvoted questions in the category they are seeking help on and hence never bother understanding what makes a good question. However, it is true that some of the users are brutal towards new users and downvote and move on without ever going back to see if the question was ever improved. It takes an even understanding on both sides to provide a meaningful -- and sometimes enlightening -- experience.
