usename, i am sorry that you feel like there was scolding. personally i don't see it, but i respect that you do.
this thread is open to the whole forum. just as you post your updates and feeling, so can others. there is an ignore feature if certain members and their replies offend you.
i do hope you realize that even the ot replies keep your thread and the updates bumped up so more people read them and are aware.
your updates are appreciated. as you have seen, many of the members browsers keep bringing them to blank or old pages.
