Beaky you're talking complete rubbish - at least in the part where you want to take your bat and ball and go home.

Communications by email where people have never met can be tough at times, speech nuances and the extra info available when face to face with someone, the history of personal interaction and so on is lost and this can make it seem like people are jumping on you.  In person the offence would probably not even be noticed.  One of the things I like about AP is the civility and support that exists, different and contrasting opinions are offered up but it stays away from personal attacks which is the way it should be - and I say that as probably one of the more contrarian stroppy gits on the site.

Fault finding remotely is incredibly difficult and I reckon anyone asking a question is grateful for all opinions offered.  It's almost given that some will be correct and others less so, your thoughts like all others are well worth reading and contribute to the knowledge pool. I hope you continue to offer your advice.
