Anyone else who feels like they'd like to leave an insulting/useless post need not bother, please. And if these reasons aren't good enough, then consider I've not used these forums much at all.
Seriously, don't see cry me a river's comments as insulting (or the one's immediately surrounding his). See them as the harsh truth that is absolutely essential for you to hear.

I've only skimmed a couple of the recent posts, but it's clear you're REALLY not ready. The people who are telling you that you're not ready are doing you a HUGE favor.

Now, do YOURSELF a favor. Beat the hell out of $0.50/$1 online for a long time, then do the same with $1/$2 online for a long time, before you even ask YOURSELF whether you're ready to consider pro, and if you can hack it.

Also, forget about grinding a roll at Sit'n'goes, and then casually striding into tough cash games, as there's a difficult transition between the two formats which people tend to underestimate. You can do it if you're talented, but it ain't easy (meaning that you can transition, not that you can casually stride in). It's better, when moving between different games or structures, to move down in stakes significantly for a while, until you get your bearings and establish that you're able to thrive in your new environment.

If you're not willing to take the time for this kind of adjustment, then it's better to start now at the lower stakes in the game you really want to earn your bread in, and work your way up from the basement.
