Maybe you need to go read through the archives. I am usually quite friendly. I look forward to the time when you understand why your approach to the question was offensive. In the meantime, a little more on how not to be offensive. Asking a specific question that shows effort will be rewarded with friendly advice. Asking a question that hist only the highpoints of your problem with no appearant effort will be coldly received. When you do get a moment, please find ESR's paper on how to ask a smart question. It will be invaluable for you when you seek to extract knowlege from others in the FOSS field. BTW, I do not consider ESR a good role model for person interaction, but he speaks intelligently on this topic. > In the mean time I will learn the old fashion way and buy the > knowledge I have no time to learn on my own from friendlier folks than > yourself. This was what was soo appearant in your message that was offensive. When you get this support for free, you need to temper your approach to that of someone asking a favor from another bust individual. Your message smacked of self importance and your need to place your problem before others. Actions like that make people feel this list becomes a welfare state where those who know must work hard for those who do not wish to put forth effort. > To the rest of the community, my deepest apology, but he deserved it. and maybe after this rebuttal, you will see how you deserved it more than you believe. > -----Original Message----- > From: "Steven Critchfield"<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: 11/06/2004 6:55:06 PM > To: "Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial > Discussion"<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: Re: [Asterisk-Users] Need a dial plan as follows > > On Sat, 2004-11-06 at 18:04 -0700, Damon Estep wrote: > > I need to put together a dial plan for an extension that has this > > behavior; > > Go hire a consultant.
