The best option is to just come out and explain the problem in your first post......too many people start out with "hello, is anyone here?" or " I have a problem with object desktop, can you help me?" no one wants to get involved in a discussion where they may not know the answer. Post as much info as possible up front and wait at least 5-10 minutes to let people digest it and look for an answer.
or making fun of you
one of the main downfalls was when the quote database was lost......after that we couldn't use your own words against you.
