Well, if it will help,

you can say mean things to me and hurt my feelings, then I’ll e-mail a mod and whine about it.

Is your problem that you spend far too much time on here when you could be doing something else?  
You can wish death on me, I won’t take it personally…

Good luck mate, hope you get sorted out…

I have removed his posting privileges. Now, everyone, listen up…if a mod or admin has made a posting in a thread, offering a solution, QUIT REPORTING THAT POST! I don’t mind the half dozen or so reports that I got before I posted. I DO, however, mind the reports I got well after I posted. Before you report a post, read the whole damn thread to see if the problem has been addressed by a mod or admin.
