The only time I see him post us to write out the link to his site when someone asks a question - like his site has all the answers and he can't be bothered to write it out. I think he has the link to his site programmed as a macro - one button and your post is done.
I don't claim to have ALL the answers, but why post the same message over and over because some people are too lazy to do some searching.
Another reason I haven't been around is because I have opened my own forums, and keeping them operational, as well as stevespages updated is a full time job.
Of course, there is also another reason I don't post here as often as I used to...it is called "deleted messages". Why should I post when one of the "powers at large" feel it is necessary to delete what I post?
