The alternative,  it appears,  would be to wait until 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, whenever for Wedge... I guess?

I love your enthusiasm. It's gems like that that almost gave me a breakdown earlier this year, thanks for reminding me.

Can dish it but can't take it... it seems.  How typical.

Bottom line,  you're being a dick for the sake of it.  The guy asked a question.  I answered.  Nothing more.  Because you evidently have an issue with Nibogo (or me),  you felt the need to be... a dick.  Well,  guess what.  I can be a dick too.

And I'm likely a bigger dick than you.

Trust me.

Oh, you have no idea. I mean, if you split up with your partner of ten years, had to move house, situation regarding employment changing (changing clients when you're self employed is potentially a big deal), learning that your mother has heart issues, learning that your grandmother has dementia (and you having to be legally involved in her affairs), that you have health issues of your own and still have to put up with arrogant people like you expecting everything, and you can take all that, great, I'm pleased for you. I tried to handle it, and almost had a breakdown. I still got personal abuse from people on various forums in that time, but hey, that's cool, that I can deal with.

Actually, no. The guy asked a question, I answered with some detail, someone else provided a case that highlights one of the major problems.

You came in with an alternative answer that works great for you. And likely for many other people, too. But you're actually ramming it down my throat as to how wonderful it is and how it deals with all your needs - but when I point out that there are plenty of cases it wouldn't suit and bring up an example of how they came to the fore, you get extremely defensive.

I'm being a dick because I'm being treated like one. Yes, you are indeed likely a bigger dick than I, and round these parts, that takes some doing.

You play the victim... real well.

Self taught or is there a class?

[Arantor]

I wasn't trying to be a victim. I was trying to point out that some people have issues too big for them to handle and I learned - the hard way - I couldn't cope with it. Is it a bad thing to admit you have limitations? Is it wrong to get to the point where you finally can't cope and almost cave in?

I'm not a victim. I'm a survivor. I'm getting there, slowly. It's that sort of mentality that means every time I get pissed off with the abuse here I take a break and then a couple of months later I'm back, trying to help people and provide support, until the cycle begins again. And I keep coming back because I'm too stupid to break the cycle because I keep giving into the feeling that I can help people and I'm not.

Wicked! was right. No good deed goes unpunished.

All this nonsense because I suggested a possible solution to the OP's question.

Sheesh.

I bet you're a real joy to live with.

You suggested a problem, I asked for things that could potentially be a problem. You went out of your way to ram down my throat how my concerns were not a problem for you, but to me they are a valid problem.

In other words, I'm peeved that you're not taking my concerns seriously, and you're peeved because I'm making a deal out of issue that you think isn't important. My concerns are important to me, just as your concerns are important to you. Only judging by this, you can't get your head around that. Maybe I'm wrong but that's how it escalated.

Actually... I'm not peeved in the slightest.  I'm actually a little amused to be honest.  My initial response was to the OP.  You pointed out some issues with the implementation.  I tested a couple things you pointed out (I honestly didn't know if adding a quote via an edit rather than in the initial post would alert or not).  I pointed out the one thing that did work ... and one that didn't. 

I also expressed my experiences thus far with the mod.

At no point was any of my posts "about you" until you made it so.

Therein lies my amusement.  You just don't like to be wrong...

Well sir... it happens.
