I'm glad I'm not the only one who has noticed this. I had been responding
to people openly in the forum telling them to stop doing it, then I
started taking it off the list and asking them to stop. At least one of
those people has since posted 3 more messages like that.

++ To the posters:

Putting "urgent" on your messages blatantly disrespects everyone else on
this forum. If you want to call your messages urgent, then also include a
statement of why your time is more important than everyone else's.

I'm not sure of Palm's stance on this, but I see the purpose of this forum
as, "This is NOT a helpdesk. No one here is obligated to answer your
questions. If you treat it as such you will not get any of your questions
answered, and you'll piss everyone off."

We're here to help each other out, not jump when you say when.

If you're project is 2 days late, too bad, you should've planned better.
It's not our problem.
