I understand people assuming "who cares" attitude on threats to move to Windows quite well. We are all here on volunteer basis and none of us get paid for answering the questions here. It's just fellow users helping each others out in a true free software style, and there is no service provider/customer relationship here. You certainly get help here if you ask nicely, but you should also remember that absolutely nobody here has any _obligation_ to help you.

Coming here and starting to arrogantly make demands is a like walking to your neighbours house and loudly demanding them to share their meal with you. Threatening even, that if you do not get a plate in front of you immediately, you will instantly leave the house. That does make you look a bit silly, doesn't it?

I agree with you, we should care, but we should only care for users who value the community and what it does. The rest can use abacus if they please for all I care.

Yes, I believe you are correct - though it might be an intermittent problem.

You, on the other hand, clearly have a problem with punctuation and the shift key.
