Just like a 6 year old when she's "done something by herself" and comes to mom or dad to tell her what she just did, it's not bragging it's called feeling proud about oneself. Now of course, if someone is doing that all the time, then it becomes bragging and annoying, but I don't think that's the case here.

    I'm happy to see when people post 1800 or 2000 ratings, it just validates how our boxer community is growing and it's not just some one off case of success how it used to be with Ellay when he was the god, and nobody else could achieve shit. That is not healthy, it's just going to cause frustration to most people, and make them give up. But when you see a bunch of "normal" people achieving similar things then it encourages people to keep going and eventually succeed.

    So to everyone else, please keep posting of your achievements and don't let pompous pricks push you down.
    Nice name calling at the end.

    However, you described the analogy perfectly. It is like a 6 year old being proud and telling mommy about it. I wonder did you tell your mommy about your wow success?

    When you see a bunch of people doing the same thing it is no longer special and should be considered normal. For sure I could see if you were the first to do well at a particular comp. However, most are just copying off of someone else's work.

    However, its not against the rules here to post self congratulatory threads so by all means. Self validate.

    I have gotten PMs about this topic so I know I am not the only one who lols about it.
