I hope it accomplished something, but putting others down in an attempt to lift your self up rarely works and tends to make you like rather nasty in the process.

Hey Ashton. I feel fine about myself. Both before my post and after. I have a successful career and I'm in a great relationship. I have a lot of close friends. When I have problems, as we all inevitably do, I talk to my friends. I listen to their advice and take it to heart. Likewise, when they have problems, I listen and provide my suggestions to improve things. I don't post about my personal problems continuously on a public message board. It's certainly fine to do so, if one is comfortable with that. But when people take the time to respond and provide advice, the one requesting it should take it into consideration once in a while.
I've been around here, and other message boards, dealing with Ethan and his ways for quite a while. He has a definite pattern of starting new threads about his various issues, both technical and personal, and then abandoning his threads. So, if he treats people in real life the way he does online, it's no wonder he has problems.
Sorry if you had a problem with my post. I didn't think it was nasty or out of line. However, it always seems that whenever anyone criticizes Ethan, there is someone waiting to jump to his rescue. Note that he rarely defends himself, he just lets the discussion ensue in his absence.
Thanks for your concern about my well-being.
