You try and help people out and they still show their ignorance. Sheeeeesh.

On a serious note - it may just be the way I say things - can anyone help in a different tone/sentence structure? I think its obvious the route I am taking but I may be getting too technical.

Thank you

  • I think the primary problem is that you've bought technical knowledge and experience into play and used it when writing an answer to a question

    This is the Internet, y'know. The first rule of Internet forums; everyone's an expert except the actual experts, and they're either talking shite, insane, on drugs, scaring innocent punters, some sort of sock puppet. Or a combination of both.

    Just accept that it doesn't matter how much you actually know, nobody will listen to you. Right up to the point their cheapo Chinese frame snaps in three at 45km/h and they embark on a lifetime of reconstructive surgery on their face and ego. Then it'll be your fault for not making everyone listen and understand.

    1. Heckspurt in bullsh1t
    2. Yossie is
    3. He knows nuffink
    4. Good line - worthy of the Grauniad
    5. Its a very good job no one listens to him

    Look dynamobrick - just keep him happy with a pic of Nina (Katrian Bryan), then he won't bother anyone (for a while).

    BTW, if you use the ctrl key and plus or minus (adjacent to 0 ), you can enlarge the screen or reduce it. Which means that you get extra detail in certain threads with certain pictures :wink:
