A few guidelines for use

Be Nice! This is the golden rule in these forums and bears re-stating: "Post unto others as you would have others post unto you." Most of the people who visit these and other on-line forums abide by this rule as a matter of course. Occasionally, however, we encounter someone who succumbs to the temptation to be, well..., not so nice. On these rare occasions, everyone is affected. Nobody likes to have rude or mean comments directed toward them, and nobody needs to read such comments directed toward anyone else. Forum moderators reserve the right to delete posts that they deem to be overly rude or otherwise not nice.

Search! As the forum grows, use the Search feature to find a particular topic of interest.

Don't be Shy About Helping! Aside from the current Forum Moderator there are lots of regular participants in the forums who know what's going on. The help these folks provide is invaluable in terms of the time it saves the rest of us. If you know the answer to a question or the solution to a problem, please feel free to jump right in and post it!
