Re: [DML] Playing nice in a public forum.

[Stephen Rice <stevedmc@xxxxxxxxx>]

I asked for advice, the first person to respond gave correct advice
and I fixed the issue.  I responded with a thank you
message and stated the issue was fixed.

After my thank you note, several people started sending advice on how
to fix what was already fixed.  Once again, a big thank you goes out
to Farrar and Martin.  I really only skimmed through the other
responses but from what I gathered people were telling me to do stuff
as extreme as rebuilding the transmission after I had already said the
issue was fixed.

Frankly, all I did was ask for advice and the first response fixed it.
 I really don't understand why this topic has to contain 20+ posts.
