brettmcee,
Don't take jsautter's comments as an attack. They do not seem to be. They are more like some kind of a guidance.
It is good to be proud of your work and you should be. However, once you start flaunting it around, it becomes a little slippery. It becomes about who is a bigger boy. And the person on the other side of your computer screen, the one to whose life you have added some entertainment, might have added some years to your life. Then it becomes a joke and you do not want to feel like your work is less valuable. Stay away from bragging about it.
Other things are fine, they are your opinions regardless of who agrees or disagrees with you.
