^ or say: "you're right, in future I'll use big bets when I want folds and small bets when I want to get paid."

...but continue playing normally.

Seriously though if someone wants to start telling you how to play: don't stop them, encourage them to tell you more. Listen carefully.

If I knew how to spell it I would have said that I was.

Seriously though, just let these things go in one ear and out the other one.

idk, good question. AP, $50-$60 much better otf.

People criticized your flop sizing because most 1/2 players are atrocious when it comes to bet sizing and only view bets in terms of absolute dollar value.

Your sizing is fine in theory as it compares to the size of the pot, but a large portion of the player pool is only going to see a $100 bet as opposed to a 1/2 psb, 2/3 psb, etc. If that's how this table views bet sizing, then your V is probably folding most of his range when he doesn't have a set. I'll adjust my bet sizing sometimes when I know I'm at a table with players that think this way, but I'm not going to fall into the trap of betting terribly small just because that's what deemed to be "standard" at a table.
