Probably not. But i dont really look at what youre doing worth it either. And as you mention fanboys, if you havent noticed most of the really hardcore fanboys on this site arent very well liked. In fact the people that are well liked usually are level-headed and people who joke around a lot.
You sound bored with your life so maybe try and make it more exciting. Seeking reactions on the internet is prob not the healthiest way of fixing your everyday problems. It sounds more like youre running away from them instead.

Thanks for that bit of insight, however wrong it may be.
I have already made it clear, multiple times infact, that I post in a style I find therapeutic, I do not visit this site to make friends or be well liked.
My life outside of work and these forums is perfectly fine, and is as such BECAUSE any stress and negativity that remains after work dissipates through saying what is on my mind, thus enabling me to enjoy other areas of my life.
Go through my posts if you wish, my posts follow a more or less regular path ranging from confrontational to passive.
You bring up "seeking reactions" multiple times now, but frankly you're way off base, if people respond to my posts or not means very little to me, the mere process of posting them at all serves the purpose intended, anything beyond that is simply a bonus.
Stress and frustration is something almost everyone deals with from day to day when holding a steady, demanding job, many others just like myself hold more than just one. So i'll again say what has already been said, I am limited my professional capacity to be civil and constructive in the workplace, when i get home and unwind, I am free to say what is on my mind, essentially tackling an issue millions have without physical, emotional or psychological harm done to anyone.
Your perception of what is healthy and what is not seems skewed in that sense, the world is awash with people that handle stress and frustration in infinitely more destructive and detrimental ways, if "saying whats on your mind, on one of thousands of internet forums" as apposed to self harm, abuse, anger or any other form of negative progressive effect towards those around me in person, then I really have to wonder what baseline you work from.
Not all of us deal with stress and frustration by signing out of forums and chatrooms after all.
You are of course free to make grand assumptions on what you personally want to believe, If you feel better about things thinking my life is "boring and unhealthy", then you will do so regardless of what I, the person experiencing my life, will say against it, much in the same way having people with no idea about game development trying to tell me details about a job I have done for the past decade - It's essentially just noise in my ear, voices and opinions of those that don't know any better and wish to convince themselves that their thoughts are on base because it makes it easier for them to swallow.
TL;DR, I am fine, thanks.
