Probus was counting down to his 1,000th post. I symapthise with his desire to get there, but I have deleted the countdown because it was unhelpful in this thread.
First, I'd like to welcome kaaskala to our forum! :hi:
Next, I would like to apologize to kaaskala on behalf of the mentors in UsingEnglish. Probus's quest to reach the 1,000 post benchmark at your expense, and in such a rude and callous manner, is not representative of our membership! Your original post contained a valid question and you should have received a straightforward and respectful answer! Please accept our apology!
Finally, I ask our moderators to close this thread and to repost kaaskala's original post so a proper reply can be offered!
Cheers,
Amigos4
