RS: Knock off the melodrama. For crying out loud, nobody wants to see you quit the forum. I have no problem with Chako’s posting a link, rather than an image. I’ve never mastered the image thing myself, either. And if he increases traffic to his website, more power to him – it’s a PLC site. I have a site too, but it’s not PLC-related, hence, no self-promotion.
I think perhaps you are feeling sensitive about that nameless guest who jumped you for trying to sell/trade some surplus equipment. Personally, I don’t want to see ads from tradesmen here, but I have no difficulty with a little “garage sale” now and then. So take a deep breath and calm down.
Chako : don’t think you’re getting away unscathed here, buddy. RS’s reply was politely phrased and seemed genuinely interested in discussing the issue – you took it to the next level, and that was uncalled-for. You had a defensible point, but decided to turn it into a pi$$ing contest. Not every dissenting opinion is a personal challenge to you.
On the subject of programming versus maintenance, I program for maintenance, but there has to be a balance. If I can do something in three steps instead of one, and the three is easier to follow, I’ll go that route. But if it’s fifteen steps instead of three to accomplish the same thing, then I do it my way and comment the heck out of it in hopes maintenance will be able to follow along.
That’s my two bits.
