Why haven't you said anything about him being rude to me? He
responded to my question as if I didn't have any type of
understanding. He stated, " Care to use the big white space to give
some indication of what it is you're trying to do?" I thought that
was rude and degrading of him to make that respond. He should have
not responded to me in an impolitely fashion.
Yes, Doug was a bit flippant in his reply. But then, we see many, many
posts with only a subject, no message body, and almost all of them are
from people who don't, as you say, "have any type of understanding."
The few that result from a simple mechanical error usually have an
immediate followup post in the same thread, or with the same title,
correcting the error. You didn't do that, but rather posted a new
thread with a new subject, so in my opinion Doug was justified in
concluding that your original message fell into the "clueless" category.
Those who donate their time to answering questions in these newsgroups
(no one gets paid for it, you know) do get a bit testy when users post
questions in the subject, with no explanatory message body. It's bad
netiquette, and it feels very demanding. So I can forgive Doug for
dealing with that irritation with an ironic remark. Whether you choose
to is, of course up to you.
