Yes, I remember him asking for help, but did the poster ever get any help? As you said, that thread was deleted, then so too his plea for help?

That the poster hasn't posted since then, seems to indicate they may have been afronted some how? Seems likely, concidering such treatment. :(

Forgive this newbee question. How does the Cafe differ from what's happening here and is "dangerous" a reference to having threads deleted or is something else going on there?
Light travels at 186,000 miles per second. Any faster would be dangerous.

Your signature is familiar to me.

Maybe the admins just didn't realize what a very big responsibility they have toward their posters? It is after all, just about information. :wink:

Welcome back Empeda

posters did not hire admins, did we? it is their board, not ours. just because there is that "community" label on this page, it doesn't make it our property. we are not important here. I mean, look - they don't even have ads for us to click on. they won't loose a single buck if this whole place will disappear.

I think they support this site because they like reading the postings of us "arm-chair science geeks”, that is, for entertainment purposes only. :lol:

I think they could be perusing the site for possible ideas too. "Free Consultations."
