PS. By the way, it can be considered poor etiquette to post the same question in the different forums.

Dear Atty

It is generally recommended that you browse forums before jumping in, we find that the vast majority of our users don't need everything written down for them, they use common sense.

Do you want people to help you or not? I'm fairly tollerant of anybody using our forums for general advice, if all that you do is come back and insult them when they do help you then you can go elsewhere.

One more incident like what you posted above and you will have no choice but to go elsewhere. I hope that I have made myself clear.

My apologies to Adrian, I have removed your post because it repeated something "Atty" said that I do not want on these forums.

I suggest that "Atty" goes and re-reads his original reply, he can see my comments there. Then he can read the bit that says about false names and anonymous posts at the top of each forum. He is one post away from being blocked, this is not open to debate.
