Seriously?!? Somebody else questioned the magnitude of the improvement, and I made a factual statement in plain language based on my experience training dozens of individuals in research studies. Why do you have a problem with that?

As for how others have responded, obviously that’s on them.

@Andy5051 said it well.

Hi @The_Cog …intentional or not, The comment was passive aggressive and took away the focus of this thread…which was to celebrate the success @chrisnobla achieved. Let’s keep this thread focused on that. Remember comparison is the thief of happiness.

I don’t have a problem with you citing your experience. I’m sure I speak for many when I say I appreciate your vast experience .

We’re making a concerted effort to make this forum a better place. Part of that is to make it more inclusive and more encouraging, and whether it was intentional or not, your message didn’t provide encouragement.

To your point, @Chawski’s original message calling the gains into question was far from encouraging as well, but to their credit, they self-corrected later on.
