All I wanted to say is: If you have trouble with forum ABC, then look twice if it is really a problem at all, then try to contact forum ABC to work it out, and if they really did something terrible to you, there is still plenty of time to go to forum XYZ and cry in public... Just don't go to XYZ the-very-next-second and tell everybody that a crime has been commited against you. Just an example: 3 hours after I did this reply of mine above, I wanted to re-check this message and... it was gone! I could have walked into any other public place and shouted "Renderosity has deleted my post!!!" Well, someone just moved it to the "Complaint Forum" - no problem at all, of course... Call me old-fashioned, but I think this sort of patience is just normal behaviour in a working community - newbie or not. If I don't like the food in a restaurant, I will tell the cook before I phone the local newspaper to publish a warning... :-)
