Another caveat re the statement
Option sellers profit most of the time but their potential losses are unlimited.
is not completely accurate. Naked call writers have a potential unlimited loss. Covered call writers have no potential loss. Naked put writers loss is like buying a stock, but is not unlimited. So yes, avoid naked calls. But since this is a covered calls thread, that should not be an issue.
