and it seems that there have been lots of word helpers.  Maybe not the usual folks, but still really good help.

Can we find anything else to be horribly rude about here?  My goodness.  If you don't know the answer or don't care to help, then why bother posting something that is horribly rude and considered offensive.  Now we have posters that feel they need to explain the fact that they've searched.  So what if they didn't?  Maybe they have a line quota, and by asking here, they will probably get the right answer and remember it.


But no, some people have to act like a "know it all" and be on a high horse, and they probably have internal issues of insecurity themselves.   


This board sure is for word help! Just remember one

The design of the Word, Drugs, Abbreviations, Style, and Productivity boards are specifically to get assistance.

If there are posters being rude, bullying, or abusive to those asking questions on these boards, please report those messages. There is a box at the top right of your screen on every message that says Report Message.

Indeed, if posters do not want to be helpful on these boards, they should (and will, if reported) stay off of them.

Let me know if you have any problems.

Subject: Has anyone noticed this when posting on the word board?

It's a minor annoyance....but when you go to the verification page, do you have to click in the box to put in the letter/number combination?


On the other boards, the cursor is already there. I can't tell you how many times I have glanced at the code, entered it without looking at the screen, then hit "enter", only to get an error message and have to enter a new code. I finally started paying attention and as far as I can tell, this is the only board that does that.


As I said, minor but annoying.....wanted to see if anyone else has experienced that.

Sorry moderators - I'm editing my own post right now....I forgot, some would interpret that word as a bad word.  Truly sorry!


Here's my repost:


While I feel I'm an excellent MT, I refuse to get as EDITED as some about this subject disc versus disk....one being from Latin and one being from the Greeks....
