Well, in fairness, the website is "Airline Pilot Central," and the forum is "Career Builder." I know at least that I tend to assume (perhaps incorrectly) that anyone who posts here is at least considering flying professionally (as is the case with the OP).

If it were posted on AOPA's website - different case, but I think it's legitimate to presume that people here are considering flying as a career, so quit whining when people try and point out the downsides to it. People don't need to have the upsides explained (everyone sees those), but many gloss over the negatives when they are starting out.
