There are exceptions to any rule. Try to find any words I have misspelled, and I never use a spellchecker.Quote:

At least when working in the IT field, there is room for accurate speech.
A dying art indeed!
nearly fell off the page!!
Mind that last step its a duecy!
BTW arent you dead yet? :D
I don't think even Batman having a dump on it is gonna kill this one ! :devil:
& btw it made it all the way to page 3 of 'new posts' sometime during Freddy's little 'I'm gonna make a point' tantrum of saturday/sunday/today ..
So Freddy is "on" about something is he?
If you read 'a more powerful ignore feature' in comments & suggestions, the 'something' & his motive & the current (imho 1/2 way fixed) solution will make just what he was 'on' (about) clear ..Quote:

The 'why' of what he was doing was fair comment it was just the 'how' I wasn't so keen on ;)
I bet if Trip pulled such a stunt, he would get banned.Quote:

now unfortunatly , i cannot remove some ofr those "garbage" posts ,, but i will e-mail noo noo after tea ,,and ask her to delete some of them
"The 'why' of what he was doing was fair comment it was just the 'how' I wasn't so keen on"
how else ? ,,ask and you,,,,,,, will be forgotten?
you have chosen to talk about me ,behind my back 74 pages into a thread ,, , that has nothing to do with this conversation?
do you think thats ,a correct thing to do?
I assumed jitBob asked because he didn't know why you'd been flooding the place & as he put 'on' like that, implying something quite different .. I answered.Quote:

You did get a bit heated at various points & you could've riled quite a few folks if I hadn't enlisted Trip to help me out to tip them off, quite a few of your remarks were flame bait .. (when you first started with this it was pub closing time on Saturday)
I am not sure how one "hijacks" this sort of thread, but it appears to have happened :)Quote:
