Is there anyway to know whether someone is already replying to a post? I have noticed sometimes replies to the same post are posted very close to each other, time wise. That has happened a few times after or before I reply to someone.

That would definitely safe time to provide help for other people. Could it be possible to set up a feature like that?

it happens a lot when you have people posting right on top of each other.
i think it always works out ok.
everyone knows that that will happen from time to time.

Hi TMOV,

You're right. That's going to happen, but it would be wonderful to know whether that person is already getting help or not. My question still is whether is feasible to set up some kind of feature to allow one to know that ahead of time.

I'VE GOT A FEELING THAT THAT THE KIND OF SYSTEM SELF MONITORING WOULD COST A LOT IN COMPUTER OR CPU TIME SLOWING THINGS DOWN A LOT.
ALSO ISN'T THIS ABOUT BEING SPONTANEOUS IN OUR SUPPORT OF THE OTHERS IN THIS GREAT SITE?
.

DID YOU EVER GET THE DOWNLOAD FROM SPYWARE BLASTER?

I FELT LIKE I HAD TO SUPPORT THEM IN SOME WAY SO A LITTLE BIT AGO I BOUGHT THEIR ONE YEAR AUTO UPDATE FEATURE, NOT THAT I NEED IT BECAUSE I HAVE A TERRIBLE HABIT OF GOING THROUGH A SERIES OF ALMOST OBSESSIVE COMPULSIVE MOVES EVERY TIME I GET ON THE P.C. WHICH INCLUDES UPDATE CHECKS.

Yes of course! I just have the desire to help as many people as I possibly can, and with more time, that number could increase.

i can tell that you are going to be a real soldier here,
IGUANILLA.
WHERE DID YOU GET THAT USERNAME FROM OR HOW DID YOU PICK IT?
I USED TO SEE GREAT BIG IGUANAS IN THE TREES WHEN I WAS IN SCHOOL AT ANCON ELEMENTARY SCHOOL IN ANCON CANAL ZONE RIGHT FROM THE FIFTH GRADE SCHOOL ROOM WINDOW. THEY WOULD BE FOUR FEET LONG AND SOME TIMES LARGER.
AND THE GUYS IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD IN PANAMA USED TO CHASE THEM DOWN ON THE GOLF COURSE AND CATCH THEM AND TAKE THEM HOME AND EAT THEM.
THEY TASTE REAL NICE WITH A LOT OF SEASONING ON THEM AND TOMATO PASTE THE WAY THEY DO IT DOWN THERE.

I don't know about being a real soldier while sitting in front of the computer, but if you said so, I'll take your word for it.

My uname is my nickname I got from my dad when I was a baby. He continued to use that until I was about 16. Then he decided I was too old and might be embarrassed by it, so he began to use my real name. I didn't mind it at all.

There! Now you know the rest of the story.

I don't know what is going on, but everytime I summited the previous message, the word "username" will change to uname. I would tried to edit again and again, and it would change back everytime. The site is going crazy on me!

Whatever it was it was driving me crazy, so I just left it.

Oh by the way, you're welcome!

Poor wabbit! But I'm glad I'm not the only one.
