A bump is a way of bringing your thread back into the current (most recently updated) stream so folks will see it. It's like replying to your own thread without really saying anything except 'Bump'. You might consider capitialization on the first word of each sentence for increased readability.

Its cool, man. you just have a very direct way of expressing yourself which some take as abrasive, although, I'm sure you didn't mean it that way! Be cool man! People will respond well to the honey but not the vinegar!

I agree, it is very easy to get offended on these forums, when people type things that sound abrasive or vengeful. Often, your intended tone of voice is misunderstood, and people take things the wrong way VERY EASILY.

That is why it is a good idea to really make an effort to think carefully before you respond, lest you get into a "flame war" with someone who has just taken your comments the wrong way.

Type carefully, using tact and diplomacy!

Thank You All, I do need a bit of advice when it comes to posting and the answer i got on my paint was wonderful, but I took care of my problem today and all I have to say is wow! My hood stripes are bling'in, after washing the mini in the rain and drying in the garage, took a small amount of wax and applied a light coat to my hood stripes and rubbed them out , all of the spots came right off and looks wonderful, I wish I had enough time to do the whole car, maybe tomorrow.Have a nice evening.Jersh

There ya go, Jersh! Relax and get to know everyone. We're a very friendly bunch.

It takes a while to find your "voice" or "online personality" when you begin posting to online forums. If you have problems or concerns, you are welcome to send me a Private Message (PM) and I will be happy to help you.
