He was telling you exactly how to solve it, it involved a good product.
That's not telling you you should buy it, he's giving you an option.

Was "Thanks Jack for your elaborate answer, but I'd appreciate some clues
how to solve this myself" too much trouble?
I'm amazed he even took the time to write a second answer instead of 'screw
you' so cheers to Jack, who has to read you 'appreciate his answer' only
through a post where you get told off for being rude in the first place
since you couldn't take the time to thank him normally?

Anywayz this is not about sticking up for Jack I'm sure he is quite capable
of that himself, it's about list etiquette, that no matter what someone
answers, he/she is investing time at that moment to help you solve your
problem, and in my opinion that always deserves some respect/gratitude
instead of some shitty reply.
