Lighten up a bit, you'll thank me.

Sorry, my ESP is a bit off focus tonight.
I'm pretty sure you used clear, declaratory English to suggest a specific action in a very authoritative fashion.
For the benefit of the noobs who read this board, both Jurassic and I wanted to disabuse them of the idea that this was a valid course of action.
You should learn to say what you mean because most participants of this site respectfully assume you mean what you say.

Let me apologize then for using unclear, non-declaratory English for what I meant to say. I realize it's sometimes difficult to discern the intended meaning from typed words.

Apology accepted. Your intended meaning didn't resemble what you wrote. And what you wrote could have been very easily misconstrued as being the right way to handle the situation, rules-wise. It wasn't.

Justacoach made a good point imo. And fwiw that was my point also.
