Re: Static IPs and WRT54gs?

If you're not going to contribute an actual answer then why post at all?

1. If you can't be polite then why post at all?

Well, to actually give answers. Instead of impolite one-liners and pointers
to wiki pages that don't contain anything that actually addresses the
question asked.

2. I did give a useful answer.

We disagree.

3. The wikis listed in my sig block, which have a taken a great deal of
effort to compile, provide lots more information. Why not spend your
time contributing rather than criticizing. ;)

Given your behavior in other newsgroups you should be familiar with why
people react negatively.

I'm less than enthusiastic about supporting a wiki where problematic egos
are involved. So, no thanks.

So you'd do well to lose your typical attitude and actually focus on
actually answering people. But seeing as how that hasn't changed during
your years of participation in other newsgroups I'm not holding my breath.
