I'm an American and all you are doing is stating that any one of us is proud to be from wherever we are born. There is nothing profound about that and is common knowledge so actually you are saying nothing. Again, there is nothing in the forum rules that prohibits anyone from commenting on a success, maybe there should be but there isn't. If someone offers an informative comment to the original poster it is that poster's personality which is going to determine whether he or she is thankful for the information or takes it personally as a put down. When I first joined this site I posted a great Hulk Hogan success only to be told it was a failure because it was a sec. I, not being a too sensitive person, thanked the other poster for the info and said that any comments on my further entries of my successes was welcome. Since that time it has saved me time and money and made me a smarter collector. I feel it is not the poster's comments that are at issue, it's how the original poster intends to take it. Just my opinion.
