Need a rest from this board

[righteousdude2]

RD2, the problem is that almost no one started off being "snarky" towards him. People tried to help. I even offered him advice before (then quit responding to him altogether). What happens is that he asks a question seemingly for advice, then gets angry at anyone who tells him that his choice is unwise. He already has his mind made up, but posts (seemingly) to get the board's praise. None of his posts have been in humility, and hardly any of his questions have been sincere, as evidenced by his follow up posts.

He has turned this board against himself, by not only ignoring sound wisdom, but mocking all who disagree with him - even if it is the entire board.

I stopped posting in response to him long ago. I still read his threads, but mostly in sadness that such a one with zeal would willingly do so much damage to the name of Christ (in his words, "bold and confrontational") by being disrespectful to others. He's trying to evangelize through brute force.

So, all in all, he brought it on himself, and I feel no sympathy for him. I do feel sadness if he does stay away, however, as he would be getting rid of a place that actually gives him sound advice; and will be gathering to himself advisers who already agree with him. He has "itching ears".

No disagreement from me. You make good points. I just chose to not read certain authors, and he is one. Oh, I sneak a peak to see why he has 40 to 50 replies, but try to steer clear.
