That is why I posted the rule, toshow that it doesn't meet the definition of hurdling. Good Lord.

Well at least we all agree upon that!

You might understand why people are puzzled.

1. The OP posted a question.
2. Several people answered the question using specific criteria from the relevant rule.
3. You then posted the rule without explanation other than "you'll probably hate this," as if the people answering the OP were incorrect.
4. Now you're surprised when people are defending themselves.

Communication is key.

I'm not buying.

We don't hate the posting of rules (I've never been chastised for it). We hate when YOU try to fit a square peg into a round hole by misapplying a rule or taking it out of context.

This wouldn't be the first time, nor will it be the last.

I didn't post anything then post the rule. I just added the rule to what had been said by 3 experts.

Um ... John didn't post the situation... someone else did.

Take BJ's moniker (and maybe the mistaken "you guys hate this" as well), and no one would have commented on the post at all.
