I went; I saw. Looks like IE8 only. I don't do BETA's.
Am I missing something ?

Maybe so, but commenting the way YOU did is no better than the "harsh" original criticism......now is it ?? :skull:

I think it needed to be said. Nothing wrong with direct and to the point.

Or do you think that we should all just play nice, like a bunch of 6 year old little girls?
We ride little girl bikes don't WE? :redflip:

I'm just saying a smiley in the post would have been nice. The guy had only made 4 posts total and then to get berated? Not cool. Not friendly. Not necessary.

And yes my post was called far. I don't :pimpdaddy: Elitism on forums by regular users is the most common reason some forums fold.

But I will let the subject drop as it will do the forum no good to continue this.

But what I said needed to be said.

Re: Luggage Rack

Easy, try this one.

The first one is for IE8 Beta, but it's a MS produced extension. This one is a 3rd party but for version 5+.

My point exactly.
A run together, no caps, no punctuation post with lots of mis-spelled words is: Not cool, not friendly and not necessary.
Do you not agree with that?

Smileys are not appropriate when you are calling somebody on downright rude behavior.

NOW............
Having said all that, I have noticed that some of the language on here of late has slipped over a bit to the "crude" side at times. Not that it bothers me, mind you, but I think it is mostly unnecessary and might bother some.

Thanks for the help. Think I'll wait for IE8. I am, for the most part, quiet carpable of chicking my own spilling !! :biggrin:

Re: Luggage Rack

Don't know about you guys, but I've lived with two six year old little girls. They'd a put ex-lax in Easy's Hot Chocolate and then hidden the toilet paper. It ain't always Little House on The Prairie.

Also, I don't think English is the first language of some of our contributors, so maybe cut them some slack. Their English is way better than my Spanish, Italian or whatever the hell they speak up in Canada.

Re: Luggage Rack

If the guy is from somewhere else, then I agree with Alan.

That being said, I'm all for someone contributing more info to the GZ universe but it only takes an extra minute or two to write at least somewhat legibly.

Re: Luggage Rack

I offer a complete and utter retraction. The imputation was totally without basis in fact, and was in no way 'fair comment' and was motivated purely by malice and I deeply regret any distress that my comments may have caused you or your family, and I hereby undertake not to repeat any such slander at any time in the future.

And now back to the story.

Re: Luggage Rack

This is my last post on this, I promise:

In going back and looking at the offending opus, I got a strong suspicion it was posted from a blackberry like device. When you're post is literally made with "all thumbs," capitalization and punctuation are a luxury. Just one more generational thing us old farts have to get used to.

Okay, I'm done now. I swear.

Re: Luggage Rack

I figured you, of all people, would appreciate the John Cleese quote there, Alan.
