Taking into consideration your intentions and the circumstances that prompted you to include that information, I will rescind your warning.

I am sorry if this has caused you any pain. My intention was merely to apply the rules, and my initial read was that you included that information as a dig at the poster in question; I see now that you did not include that information in bad faith.

I do hope that my solution to your question in the original thread allows you a better experience on these boards.
