I understand, i was just a bit frustrated as everything i tried to do was wrong. I noticed Coding Critique, and thought i had placed my thread in the wrong forum. So I thought i was doing the right thing by reposting the thread where i thought it belonged. I overreacted out of frustration that everything was doing was wrong. Initially I didnt post code in the original security thread because i didnt know it it was okay. I will stick around since I know this is an amazing resource, with helpful people. I will try not to get so frustrated when i make mistakes.

elequent and nice. i wish more mods on other boards were like you. too bad everyone seems to let the "internet power" go to thier headsEverah wrote:Just to clarify things a little bit, it is not anyone's intent to bash anyone or anyone's code. Your first post was appropriately placed in the PHP - Security forum. But there was not code in it for us to evaluate. The second post was placed in Coding Critique, which is where you put your code when you want others to tear into it to some degree. That is not a forum in which we expect to look at things like Security primarily (though we do when critiquing code). That forum is where we go to see how other peoples code can be improved. After a few repsonses it was placed into PHP - Security to be evaluated for Security instead of general coding technique.
If I (and this is only from me) did or said anything that was received by you as offensive, I apologize. But please realize we, as moderators and admins, have jobs to do here to make sure our forums run smoothly for everyone. I am not trying to excuse any potentially offensive behavior on my part. I am just offering an explanation of why we do the things we do here.

Thanks spudhead (reference to Toy Story [Way to go Idaho] - I have kids). I appreciate it. All of us have our days. From a moderator standpoint, sometimes things get frustrating. I can imagine what it would be like from an admin perspective. But all in all, I try to keep things as amicable as I can.
