I received a text from a quitter, newer than me, but not totally green. It summed up to me that KTC: extreme, daily accountability, and brotherhood are not for everyone. He didn't cave, and I hope he doesn't, but his actions, which he felt the need to share, are exactly what success on KTC is NOT about.

(name removed)

Him: "I had 5 days this week in which I did not think about dipping at all. Didn't remember that I quit, didn't forget I used to dip, just didn't think about it at all. Not once. I'm proud of you. The hard part is behind you."

Me: "'The day you forget you're an addict is the day you lose -LOOT' Be careful"

Him: "Honestly I am sick of that kind of shit. You be careful.

Me: "I've posted 564 days in a row. You've posted 4 times in the last two weeks. Not posting roll and forgetting your an addict is not a good plan in my opinion. I take back "be careful". Good luck on your impending cave, maybe more accurate. Lose my number. You are not serious about quitting."

Him: "I never said I forgot I was an addict you self absorbed wind bag. I just said that I hadn't thought about it for a few days. How much I have or have not posted is not of your goddamn concern. I'm just not as inclined to define myself by my addiction and wear it like a fucking badge. I've watched you run over people on that site for six months and I'm sick of your shit. Two promises: I'll never cave and you number is fucking wind."
Interesting.

When I read hof intros, your name comes up frequently as someone that walked a quitter to the first milestone. We've never talked, but you are the kind of quitter that I would sure want in my corner if I were a new quitter! This fight isn't for the timid or the weak, and we need all of the help along the way we can get.

Not everyone wants to quit. That's why ust has those gulfstreams and fat cat executives. Some people come here to dabble in stoppage. Others come here ballz to the wall to quit. Don't let the dabblers get you down man... Your efforts have helped save many a life. Thanks for all that you do.
Thanks for posting this Evil. He is obviously not seeing the advantage of a quit insurance policy with a $0 premium. Probably not a wise move on his part.

Keep posting that daily roll!
To each his own, but those who want to quit would be best off following the proven plan that works to increase their odds. That plan involves posting daily and building an accountability network that includes quitters like you. I'm with you on this one, as I frequently am.
You can lead a horse to water but you can't make a jackass drink. Perhaps I feel different about it because for 100 days I carried your original HOF coin in my pocket, or perhaps like many other KTC quitters I understand that "Accountability" means to self, family and all others who care. When I need help I know who to call.
"If you want to quit then stop talking and just QUIT. If you want to kill yourself a bullet is cheaper and faster than a tin, plus it eliminates my hearing you whine and cry like a bitch."

It's Monday and my resolve to not kill any more people is being tested.

If you are being paid to do a job - do it and do it well.
If you are unhappy with something - change it. If you choose to not change it, shut the fuck up about it.
If you are not a person of your word - fuck off.
If you can't make an intelligent decision based on facts, history, and proven methods- stop trying, move over, and fuck off.
If you rely on hope and prayers to undo your fuck-ups - fuck off.

Actions speak louder than words.
Glad to be quit with you Evil
Sounds like somebody's got a case of the Mundays.
"not to kill ANY MORE people?" Shit Evil! I'm glad you are on our side! :D
Do you do consulting?....I think some of my managers need to hear this 'bang head'
Testify Evil, Testify Brother in the Quit Gospel!!!!!!!
Can I have you visit my workplace and meet a few people? 'crackup'
Can't agree with you more...
