It would be hard to convince myself I'm any good at poker at all these days if I couldn't win $30k every month

I've never heard of you before this thread and you don't know me either but this type of statement from you makes it really obvious why people on these forums think what they think about you. Alot of really good players (capable of making 30k, or even double that in a month) have losing months. Obviously not every other month, but enough that they would never say "I make 30k every month". Either you are the luckiest professional poker player in the universe or you are overstating a bit here.

What percentage of total 2+2 posters is that? There are over 50k registered here. We're below 0.1%.

Come on man, if you are a 30/60 player then you should compare yourself to the 30/60 players who post on 2+2. Everyone knows there are a lot more low limit players than high limit players here, just like there are everywhere. What proponents of 2+2 say is that the best winning players at each limit are more likely to be 2+2 members. So of all the 0.50/1 players out there, the ratio of 2+2er winners to non 2+2er winners is greater than the ratio of all winners to all players. The same goes for every limit.

You want to claim you are better than the average 30/60 player who is also a 2+2er, fine, but claiming to be so elite compared to 2+2 members and then basing that comparison on a group of people who mainly consist of low limit players learning the game is just silly.
