Please dont cross post. It doesnt increase your chances of getting help.

This isn't a cross post buddy. Its a link for others who don't read technical. If it was a problem I think a moderator would have already replied. Go about your business.

Yes, it is. And we self-moderate. We try not to snipe at each other here. He was just letting you know. Please keep it respectful.

I suppose that's why this entity used "apperciate" rather than "appreciate" in the subject line.. didn't want any of us to feel happy about helping or not helping it with its problems.

I have ran many clubs in the past 10 years on the Net. Mainly car clubs. Posting like I did is not a cross post. And so far my experience with this site has not been good. Alot of people on here complain more than help.

If it was a problem I think a moderator would have already replied. Go about your business.

Here is your official moderator reply.

Normally, I don't have to do this, because someone else comments on the situation, and the person accepts it. But aparently, you need a red name to reply directly.

As others have said, this is a very close community. There is no need to snap at people here. Expecially after you got the help you are looking for.

Well Draking, if you read really well, I didn't snap first.

You can see others snapped at me, so I replied back. Then they started the insults, etc.

Well Draking...
I think he prefers "Drakino", slang for "Dragqueeno".

why are we still discussing this?
russ, you crossposted
it doesnt matter how 'the cool people do it', its not how we do it. accept it, and move on. were a really cool community, you just got off on a bad foot. stick out your other one and lets move on.

The other thing of note here is that the thread that was crossposted seems to have copious answers in it. Russ, that does argue against your need to crosspost to make sure you got heard. In fact, you crossposted immediately after you posted, so you didn't even give anyone the chance to reply before you decided, ad hoc, that no-one was going to read your post in technical. That's not really very polite.

You've been around on this board for a little more than a week now, so I can understand you might not be used to the way things work around here. But in that time, and given your other experiences posting on other BBSes, you should have worked out that it's better to give people a chance to reply before you cry out about being ignored...

Don't think that people don't pay attention to these things. If you don't like the civility with which we treat our fellow posters here, then feel free to go elsewhere for help.

Have fun,

Paul

/me recalls a long time ago when new people would lurk for a while before posting, familiarizing themselves with the culture of a newsgroup.

He's right. Let's get back to beating on [censored].

No, don't do that! It took me a few posts to figure out what was going on as it is. I think it would loose a bit of the humor to change his name.

For the record, I concur that this is absolutely frick'n hilarious

By the way, how did [censored]'s name get censored anyway? A joke? Your (original) signature?

i think [censored] was talking [censored] about some [censored], and [censored] one of the moderators off. they decided to be a [censored] and add [censored] to the censored list. as a [censored] [censored] joke, maybe. but, maybe its just because [censored] is a [censored] [censored] [censored] [censored] and [censored] the way that [censored] is prone to.
