While you may know what your intentions were, your actions are preventing
your goal from being achieved. Your personal attacks do nothing but draw
attention to yourself and not to the issue. If you feel Carey's answer is
incorrect, then feel free to offer what you feel is better or more precise
advice in it's stead.
My reply to you was based not only on the outwardly abusive way you chose to
make your point made, but by the statement "Maybe if I repost this a hundred
times I'll get to be an MVP, too!" The award does apply to the amount of
posts made, but also by the accuracy and helpfulness of the posts.
I would ask that if you feel Carey is not doing his job, then prove it so by
providing better advice in a consistent and continual basis.
Thanks for listening - I will go back to my participation in other threads
as I feel this one died near the third post in it.
