Please understand that it is just as hard for us to know at what level your understanding is, what exactly you need help with, what you have already tried etc. when you do not explicitly state these things.

I really think your letter is both immature and offensive, even if it was not directly meant for me -- you really ought to ask yourself why you get unsatisfying answers and try to improve your own question-asking skills instead of sending such stupid rants to the list, which will just ensure you even less answers in the future!


Nice side-step. Yours was the only response *I've* personally received but I see this attitude at least once a week on this list and I implore people to keep their responses helpful or to themselves. I provided all the information you claim I left out, minus a specific for-instance, which wasn't necessary since the primary question boiled down to, "Where ***ELSE*** can I find ***additional*** information on the above-mentioned topics?"

Thank you for the attempt (I guess?), but your response was almost inflammatory with its blatant disregard for my stating I've read the documentation and still don't understand. How much more clearly am I required to state what I've read? It is unnecessary and unhelpful respond in this way and I stand by my convictions that the entire reason for this list is to provide alternate explanations when the documentation is insufficient - whether or not others find it so.

Respond to this if you like, but I won't be dragged into a flame war.
