Oh, so the mixing of straight and curly brackets was intentional, then?
We'll leave you alone then. Clearly, you know what you are doing.
So, joadbres, I pull out my magnifying piece and I see that there are. some of the wrong brackets and so for that I am very thankful that you persisted and caused me to check more closely.
But I am wondering where I went wrong in that post I did? I mean, so wrong with the language and style that I used that it was necessary for a response being placed before me that seems rather strange. It almost seems from what you wrote, joadbres, that you were using a sarcastic style; but then I am probably missing there, too. Just like not actually seeing the wrong brackets.
I normally have very good eyesight and on this site I can't even be sure of the difference between a period punctuation mark and a comma, and the brackets sure do not look different without the use of the magnifying glass. If you want me to do a screen grab to illustrate what I am attempting to place as an explanation for part of my earlier mistake, please ask me, and I will.
BUT I am still wondering where in my post you felt I was being so impolite, or something else, that the style you used was necessary?
I really have been using BB Code for I don't know how many years, but does it seem impolite to you, joadbres, for me to be illustrating to you my experience working with forum software? If it is impolite for me to do that, then please instruct me as to how that seems impolite to you and I will be sure to give your explanation full consideration. And, thank you.
I really am at more than a bit of a loss.
And now I can have a thread to do some tests, because other points I made in that other post still could do with some explanation:
Testing for italic. Now when using the button above: Testing for italic. The button up there does not work.
No problem, as long as I am more careful not to hit that 'Shift' key by accident and do the following, {].
And I really do appreciate that you pointed out what I had done wrong, even if it took two posts for you to get your point of view across, joadbres, but why I get the sense of some sort of impoliteness being aimed back at me is a matter for me to think about.
And for anyone who might have an answer as to why I am not getting a proper response on the forum when highlighting text, as in hitting the 'Back Space' key after highlighting a block of text and it not. going away, I'd appreciate some help. I am assuming the reason the buttons up above aren't working is also related to a problem with highlighting. Meaning the forum software doesn't know I am trying to highlight text.
Again, would appreciate the help on that.
