      Maybe, but I can tell you when I was 15 I didn't have instant worldwide reach and the on-the-Internet-nobody-knows-you're-a-dog effect at my disposal, and neither did my readers.

          I think/hope that it is still like that, just that haters are a subset of people, whose opinions are currently disproportionately magnified.
