I appreciate having a different perspective of how "Support for" threads may impact negatively on other members. However, I do think that the title may be an extra push to get persons to respond. I've had people tell me they read posts but don't know what to say; similarly when in chat- they don't know how to ask for help.
It is a terribly complicated thing, as people cannot support you unless you say something- and then people don't always give support unless you ask for it. And in chat, it is very difficult to support people when you need support yourself.
This sticky saddens me though- because everyone on RYL deserves support. The title is just highlighting/ identifying someone in particular- but it is in no means meant to diminish the importance of anyone else.
