    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    Why do some people have to blow things out of all proportion, and make ridiculous comments?

    All I was pointing out was that I got what I consider to be a rather rude, unnecessary reply to a post.

    And if the PM's ive received are anything to go by, others share my thoughts.

    It has certain discourteous connotations that some folk may be more sensitive to than others. It could also be argued that your response seemed a little ungracious, although I'm sure that's not how you intended it to come across.

    And how on earth can a reply that starts with "Very Kind of you" be misconstrued to be anything other than polite???
    Combine "blag" with "very kind of you" and it sounds like sarcasm. Are you sure it wasn't ? His response was understandable in that case.

    It reminds me of the thread on another forum where someone posted a video of bad driving by another driver and everyone pointed out it was HIS driving that caused the problem. IIRC he deleted the video eventually.
    I think this is a simple misunderstanding, though. No tone of voice in a written post, unfortunately.

    spot on...it is very easy to misinterpretate the typed word. this is true in both both directions and how things get out of proportion. the addition of smillies sometimes helps
