If he kills himself over some stupid internet forum like SD, he's got a lot of problems that reach way, way beyond the flaming that took place on that guest book. Guilt trips are one thing, but commiting suicide pretty much just proves you were unstable to begin with, or you were proving Darwin right and didn't have what it takes to get by anyway, and this was hardly a major deciding factor in what would have ended up the same way for any number of excuses in the end.
Sorry. It may sound mean, but I only let guilt trips go so far before I call someone on it and stop feeling sorry about what's happened.
Yes it could have been handled better. So could a lot of things. I never liked SD anyway though, and if you're going to post pics of a crappy install there, you shoule expect to get flamed. That site just begs for it looking at the unfathomable number of crappy cars and systems I see on that site. In the years I've been browsing that site, I've seen maybe three.. THREE cars on that site I'd even consider "good" installs or well done performance setups. All of the rest are bolt-on rice jobs and lousy but typical back yard installs with wires hanging out and sloppy amp mountings screwed to sub boxes with people bragging about how great their car is and how it's loud enough to hear it 3 blocks away.
Oh joy. I hope it's not within three blocks of me.
