I'm sure glad you posted that.
Reading words online, sometimes it's hard to be sure
how someone means something. But having been here a little while, I can assure you that while MrYum may have been smiling and shaking his head a bit as he typed the "good luck man...I got a hunch you're gonna need it" part, he was not feeling smug or trying to be hurtful. In fact, I'd say he's gone out of his way to be helpful in this thread, as he does very often on this board.
WarBot, I can see you have a lot of things going for you, many of which should lead to success in the adult biz world. One thing I'll caution you about, however, is that this biz is a pretty small world. And like with other small worlds, it can take a bit of time to be accepted by those already living in it. Denigrating a respected and well-established member of the community probably wasn't going to help much with that.
I hope you'll take the advice you've been offered, and that you do well with your new adult business, WarBot. In part because if you do have success with it, one day you'll probably try to offer some helpful advice based on your actual experiences to someone new on an adult webmaster board. And then that person will completely misread what your intention was, and he'll tell you how you're being smug and hurtful and that you've lowered his opinion of you.
Right about then you'll know how MrYum probably felt when he read your first post of this morning. Fortunately, I don't think that will knock him off his usual willing-to-help position on most things. And hopefully, if and when it happens to you, it won't knock you off of yours either.
