I'm glad we got that misunderstanding sorted out. That's why it's
important not to respond to a post (in an agressive/attacking manner)
if you believe you are being attacked or slighted.
In this forum environment it can be very easy to misunderstand the
intent behind another members post, it's much better to give them the
benefit of doubt. The ONLY avenue available in these situations is to
e-mail the moderator with details of the post and let the moderator
sort it out.

IMPORTANT: No other forum member should get themselves involved in these
disagreements in ANY way whatsoever. That means ZERO response to posts
which appear to attack/sligh another member.

The forum moderators (myself and Tomasz) have lives beyond this forum and
whilst we may not be always able to respond immediately to these situations,
eventually one of us will get to it. I read EVERY post that is sent to this
forum so it's just a matter of time.

Any new members that haven't read the rules of conduct for the
AmiBroker forums I suggest you do so now. (See link below)
