Feelings towards 18x'ers...

[just_hank]

First off let me say that I have the utmost respect for QP's and I have found this site to be extremely helpful in answering my questions from day 1.

Now, a little background explanation to my question...as i stated in my introduction, i had the priviledge of sitting down and speaking with an 18e with quite a few years in SF. He explained to me that he went into SF as an 18x'er himself and went on to explain that there were some SF guys who did not hold 18x'ers in very high regard. His point was that guys in his ODA were surprised to find that he was an 18x'er himself...so here is my question: What are your own feelings towards 18x QP's and the reason for those feelings? Are there any current 18x QP's on here? what have your experiences been?

Thank you for your time and God Bless...
