My post was most definitely in jest!

I was just noticing your posting/responding "style" and I can see by some of the responses to your posts (over a period of time here), that some users do get put off by your reply style. I have been on many other forums, as a member, moderator, and administrator and have seen that most members react better to a more "civil" type of response, rather than a response that may be construed as a dish at their lack of knowledge on a subject. I was wondering if you have noticed that or not?

 

Ok well I somewhat thought as much because it is not like you to respond in the manner you did as if the defender of the DIY members . LOL
As for my tolerance .and ,patients and what I have time for NOPE, if someone does not like my straightforward response, they can choose to ignore it. However, I post for a few reasons... to actually help an OP with a question... to post a response in such a way that other DIY hopefully do not distract from empirical facts and procedures and perhaps many members as well more so viators may have the same concern can read a "better" answer then they may be greeting anywhere else and the thread interests me.

I have seen so many times as well a number of our members here have found some of my informational responses copied and mildly re-worded and posted by members on other forums not just Mazda related. LOL

I also have authored so many tech articles in various periodicals as well magazines and even a couple segment authored in HOW-TO books... (I am part of the HP Book family ) and have even had members on forums pull my write ups without knowing its me to challenge my own responses. I cant say anything and can only laugh in silence.

I say once again your posted information on the unique threads about Mazda truck is accurate and helpful;. But you often tip toe around being direct to a OP that IMHO takes them longer to resolve and issue. LOL But see that the thing, that is your style of posting.

Lighten up Superman (joke) these back and forth responses serve no purpose and will not change how I respond on threads.
I should also mentioned that I have PM'd and given my personal contact number for many members over my time on this forum as well other to call me directly to help them with there problems.
I have already seen a couple members today looking at this thread so don't be surprised if they post.


To end this off topic conversation hopeful ..... I will post my new favorite picture that fits 99.9% of every thread I responded in...

Keep up your good posting help on the MAZDA truck threads.

 

No problem, and thanks for the kudos!
