I second that! This list has standards. Here are a few tips: Capitalize the word "I" and "I'll" and the like. The word "you" has three letters in it, not one. Use spell-check. Capitalize Google and its derivatives. In general, present yourself as someone intelligent -- not a moron. You'll get more respect, and more help. While I'm ranting, here's more general stuff that doesn't necessarily apply to this thread: Do not type anything in all caps. Make your e-mail subject meaningful. I don't bother to read anything with no subject, or "help" or some other useless title. If your code isn't working, post it when asking the group why it doesn't work. When your output isn't what you wanted, post sample input, actual output, and expected output. Proofread what you write! Not only will you be able to fix bad writing, but upon re-reading you may notice that you are being ambiguous, leaving out important details, or that your wording just doesn't make sense. Think about how many threads begin with a question, then 10 responses asking for clarification. If you ask properly the first time, you might just get the right answer in the first reply!
