Judy, I have to agree with you here. This is the kind of unhelpful response
which is the result of someone who really can't be bothered to help. What a
turn off for a potential new Voice OVer user if they saw this. Look, y'all,
let's all try to remember something. We're here to help each other and new
users; not to give answers that show we can't be bother to help. Judy was
asking about a very specific problem which I myself encountered. Web Kit was
the answer for me. This list has been very helpful to me; and, I must say,
that, most of the members here pay attention to what a poster's needs are and
they do their best. I would ask that if we any of us find ourselves in no mood
to really make an effort to try to help anyone seeking assistance here, perhaps
it would be better not to give any answer rather than that which Tim gave to
Judy. IF I had still been a new user of Voice OVer, or even not yet a user but
thinking about it, I would have seen that message and thought, "My goodness.
Apple Mac users are really a bunch of arrogant bastards! I'll never touch a
Mac now if this is what I'm going to get back when I ask for help. PLEASE,
PLEASE, PLEASE, can we not reduce ourselves to this?
Sincerely,
The Constantly Barefooted Ray!!!
