I'm still a little blown away that mods have turned a blind eye to this thread. It's a success thread and we are supposed to have VERY strict rules about trashing on a success thread :dunno: Obviously the OP has thick skin and can handle it but that shouldn't matter. It's pretty disappointing if I'm being honest :twocents: |

I think it was part of his intent to have the controversial discussion on this thread. |

There's endless repercussions to the bashing. Site traffic is down like 75% from just a few years ago. Bashing of success is one of the many reasons for that. |

He wanted it to remain and wanted there to be discussion. He knew it was controversial. Since then I have again discussed with him how he wanted to proceed and here we are. I will say that the forum rules still apply to all other success threads. This one is the exception to that rule. I appreciate your concern and I feel the same way you do. |
