SV: Apache configuration



Henrik,

No, that one definitely deserved some harsh words, which is exactly what Scott did in his reply!

Unfortunately your post was not a reply to that specific post from Duane. Your rant was directed at the OP, Vince. While Vince had his own frustrations with making his predicament clear in a way that was also clear to the rest of us, he didn't share the opinions put forth by Duane, instead at the time of your post he had already apologized both for being vague about what he wanted and for venting his frustration in his posts.

I at least feel that your post was exaggerating in its indignation and didn't find the right target.

Let's leave it there, okay. It might be only me that feels that way.

Regards,
Kaj

Kaj,

so you really mean that post like this (post 3 in this tread initiated by
post 2):

"Vince I agree with you completely, that are jerks out there that get
there kicks out of admonishing people.   I am done with this site."

should go uncommented
