--- Quote from: rstofer on February 18, 2022, 05:45:21 pm ---Our group lost before we even knew there was a problem. --- End quote --- Downvotes remind me of an occurrence when I was a young whippersnapper doing IT support at a University Dept. a quarter of a century ago. One of the teachers had noticed a problem on one of the computers in a classroom (PPC Macs). Instead of letting me know, they decided that a post-it note on the classroom door would suffice. It read: "Nominal Animal, one of the computers has a problem. Please fix." To reiterate, downvotes are NOT USEFUL, unless they intend to gauge popularity and nothing but popularity. And I for one am not interested in popularity contests. |
