Greg,
I have to say that you seem to be jumping on Steve because of who he is,
rather than what he says. Granted Steve then comes back at you and
succeeds wonderfully in winding you up (why do you let him by the way?)
Certainly on this occasion I am certain that Steve was offering advice
in good faith. After all, the guy is very good at what he does and has a
lot of experience in the field under discussion. Ryan has come looking
for advice on finding programmers and Steve has offered some advice.
Seems to me that's well within the purpose of this forum  - so why does
it look like descending into bickering again?

Steve always does his best to help and advise people both via this list
and indeed in other ways within the PBM community. I don't think you,
Greg can claim to do so to anywhere near the same extent. Yes, PBM List
is useful (though a large proportion of the links are out of date) but
frankly, you have a widespread reputation of being an awkward customer
who doesn't co-operate with others. By jumping on Steve (and indeed
Carol) whenever they try and help someone, you are only enhancing that
reputation.

Ultimately it's boring. Can we discuss PBM / PBeM and suchlike? I posted
up something about a current favourite game of mine a week or so back.
Can anyone else recommend a favourite game? I'm particularly interested
in free web-based games at the moment. Something I would assume Greg
would know womething about (amongst others I hope)?
