Why are your retarded? No simple answer there?

Pardon me, but according to your profile, you've got some pretty impressive numbers relative to your solutions:

FixYa!: 11
Helpful: 12
Thanks for Trying: 6
Inappropriate: 1

There is only a single "inappropriate" and who's to say that the person clicking in that selection either didn't understand what it meant or was just so upset about their problem and so anxious to get a result that, when they received a Clarification Request instead, they reacted saying that the "answer" was not sufficient.

I would hope the people we try to help remember that this is a volunteer effort and that we are not paid support technicians. As another person who volunteers to help out here on occasion, my suggestion to you is to remember the same thing. This is just a volunteer gig. It's not your life and it certainly shouldn't determine any part of your self worth.

Hang in there. If you haven't already, move on to other problems and other solutions. Good luck.
