I've seen it before it's never received well from the community. These are moderators, not executioners. | |

I don't just magically know how to configure everything, It's because when I first did it I used a resource (website, man page, what have you), the second - fifth time the same. After that I'd pretty much memorized the steps. Under that logic I'm merely paraphrasing an answer I found somewhere else a little while ago. Does my answer get removed? | |
