Well THAT was a really disappointing post. :skull:
Maybe there is a good reason that "everyone kicks me about this".
I guess maybe you are on the cusp of the "my experience is more important than the collective wisdom of others" generation. Younger folks just don't get it and tend to fight the "conventional wisdom" to the death but I thought you had more savy.
Let me just say: It is an undisputable fact that all people are NOT the same. Their skills and abilities differ widely. I know that you think you are providing good advice but, for a person that you really know nothing about, it just is NOT......really.
Mentioning your considered opinion is one thing; "preaching" that your experience somehow applies to everybody and "you'll be fine" is quite a different thing.
Ponder upon that for a bit, please ??
P.S. The REST of your post was excellent but you really need to get over this "if I did it, you can too" recommendation. Really.
