I'm going to have to agree with Posher here. Dude, his idea may have sucked in a lot of our eyes, but you don't need to completely discourage him. Everyone starts somewhere. Your first idea may suck, but you have to try to make it better. Build on it; that's the foundation of good writing. Trust me, I've went trhough the process hundreds of times. What I said may have been harsh, but it was meant to do nothing but help. I can't see anything productive that you've offered that wasn't a nasty rehash of what one of us said or was just a direct insult. If you're a writer (and I doubt you are from your condescending tone) then you need to be supportive. Tear down when you have to, but be supportive none-the-less. We'd do the same for you (at least I would.)
