: : : Take what I said with a grain of salt for it is just my opinion. No hurt feelings/flame wars are warranted : : Abdul
: I (and obviously others) feel the same way. If someone takes the time to put together some info then an acknowledgement of that is absolutely necessary. What Dan said is unfortunately correct, don't answer them again! I think we should start a wall of shame for people who have showed up here once, asked a question, then never posted another word. Sort of like the bounced checks taped to front of the cash register at a store.
: : IMHO (In my humble opinion) about posters who receive answers/possible solutions to their postings. In plain english, acknowledge that someone replied to your posting/question. Use words like "Thank you", "I'll try that", "Thanks for your time" which makes it appreciative of the time invested here. This declination in postings might be partly due to this washout effect...again, my opinion. I'm not the most knowledgeable person about maxima's, but, I'd like to state that I do mind my P's and Q's and contribute where I can. For every posted question, I can almost guarantee that the answer(s) will be the only reply to the thread and you'll never hear from the post owner again except in another post where he/she repeats the question all over again.
