I understand your comment. But if it is so, I don't know but if it is, then the solution is to simply not reply or offer any further help. Each has this option. The lesson will be learned one way or the other. Life is too short, why hassle about it :)

>but this is the point. It only sounds polite. If somebody (I'm not the only one) tries to to set him to this track (search professional advice for the basics) his politeness is very short fused. He will not learn, he will not argue, he will somebody to solve his problem cheap and fast.

>>I don't think this is correct or necessary. I think there are two issues here; (1) there is a language barrier, not all participants are native English speaking, (2) a cultural barrier; Harsh is asking in a very polite way and with words and phrases common to that part of the world. His "mistake", if I can call it that, is only asking complicated questions, in a field he is not trained in or has acquired enough experience in, and perhaps he needs to consider contracting a mentor or consultant to help him. We were all newbies once :)

>>>If my recollection is correct and that individual does not use his real name, I personally think at least the same consequences Kevin faced should apply. "At least" because in such a case there is not only a suspicion, based on how much undeniable, but still circumstantial evidence, but confessed truth about the facts,
