| Sometimes the answer to a post is not necessarily the answer to the question asked.. In this case, Tal responded to your statement; "very little experience in using computers and the Internet". He therefore offered, what I felt was at least valid advice on how to get started. You may have felt it wasn't the advice you wanted, but it was valid advice based on the info YOU posted. Therefore it did not deserve a negative comment. You are now compounding your error by making assumptions about Tal's motives that I can assure you are misplaced. Most of the people here who answer questions do so out of a sincere desire to help. Sometimes that help could be better, sometimes the question is worded ambiguously so the answer may not be what the asker was expecting. But that doesn't deserve a negative comment. Remember the people here volunteer their time and expertise to help others. They should be given the benefit of the doubt that they were trying to help.
I agree with NeedKarma that your attitude is not going to help you get answers. You DO owe Tal an apology, even more so than before. |
