Quoted from Otaku:

Maybe last year there was a young man by the name of Curtis who displayed probably 2 times the excitement in pinball Facebook groups at an almost daily frequency and finally did get 25% of them fired up (would have been 3000% if it was on Pinside - lighter atmosphere in the Facebook world and the guy posted at a level where day 1 would have been Pinside suicide), probably because it came off like bragging, but when I spoke to him he promised it wasn't, and I saw it in a different light. I think a lot of people just mistake excitement and passion for bragging, I guess. He was a nice kid a little younger than me and just as obsessed with the EMs and he reminded me a lot of myself. A few months later he ended up leaving the groups and quitting the hobby just because of the negative comments - it really hurt to see that, all that passion literally killed and never to return.

Curtis didn't leave the hobby or the groups. I talk with him occasionally and he's still picking up and fixing games, and posting in Facebook groups I'm in...Please don't use such a nice guy to justify your behavior.
