Jokes do not translate well in the cyber world, many time humor is mistaken in a forum conversation.Still I think two things are at work here. PitB you are still a tad miffed by the responses you received in the other two post, and it shows in your attempt at humor. One should most likely not joke about something that is a sore subject until it has for the most part become old news.

I think Pat said it well in the other post, you need to dial down the sarcasm in your responses, at least for now until the bad taste in both your mouth and others goes away. I also agree with some of the others, you made some valid points, that were not taken well by many of us including myself due to the way you handle these things. People take offense to direct criticism, especially from one whom they are unfamiliar with, and maybe has not "earned that right" to make that observation. Not even having the program, and certainly making an assumption that is not totally valid, due to not being aware of everyone who uses this program. It takes time to learn all that is involved, and the user base is vast, and worldwide.

PitB i think you can offer some valuable contributions here, and i welcome that, but to get there, a couple things will help. Be a little less aggressive, and also a little less defensive at the same time. Once you have offered something other than criticism, and gained the "friendship of a few around here, what you say will resonate with more power, and people with understand your brand of humor.

Respectfully, Rob
