He sure was. He was the real deal and, from his posts, you can tell. He wrote that way to aid the reader. There's a name for that style of writing, I can't recall it at the moment. I used to type out like a programmer on a computer forum that I used to frequent for Mac users who were into audio recording. It helps them get through the instructions and steps easier as it guides the eyes down the page. It's a technique that has a very specific name but, for the life of me, I can't remember what they call it now.

Me personally, I don't like that style of posting but,

some do
prefer to
write in the
block style. I find it a little disjointed to be honest. Paragraphs are good.

I don't cut and paste unless it's a link or, it's a process flow then, yes, I copy and paste but, I dupe from my own forum posts- not from the web.

Again, thanks for all the comments.

If I wanted you gone you would be. I actually talked an Admin out of banning you not too long ago. What was I thinking?

We have 3 mods in here right now and no need for another. Mods are selected on more than just their knowledge or helpfulness. Large sums of cash must change hands.
