We could discuss the details, etc., from here out. However, there's one bottom line for me...
professional or not, inappropriate or inappropriate *but*...
Scott was a member of a support community. As a member of *this* support community, his actions were inappropriate not on one, two, several, but many occasions.
I'll use myself as an example...
I can't blame others for my bad behavior. OK, well I'm exaggerating. I might be able to get away with it a time or two, but that's it. Pretty soon, after time and time again or involving myself in bad behavior(s) with others, the common denominator has to be looked at...*me*.
I'm with Sky...those that can thank him and wish him well, please do; those that can't, please keep on a keepin' on.
Thanks,
KD

kimmy, I completely understand where you are coming from in terms of 'common denominator', and I think as a rule of life that is often a sensible one to consider.
I have a question for you though. Did Scott ever give you a hand with advice? Did he give you some of his pretty valuable, tightly stretched time, to help with anything in your own life?
IF he did, and I have no idea obviously, then he could be said to have SUPPORTED you. Even though in other ways he may not have been the perfect PC member ... MANY of us mess up, some of us (me for example) more than others.
But IMO, support comes in a lot of forms, and I don't think it's fair to class him as unsupportive, when in fact he supported a LOT of people here in his own way. Which, I might add, was pretty invaluable for many of us.
