I very rarely find the need to delte any content. If anything, you should not be ashamed of your (you posted it here) code, but come back 2-3-6 months from now and see if it makes you chuckle (I often revisit ancient code for just this reason ~ if anything me style has changed quite a bit)

I also find myself quoting this time and (crazyinsomniac) Re^2: monastic wargames time again, and it's good advice (I try to take it myself very often)

Hi all y'all,

Now lokee her'.
All y'all peoples gettin' offended, don't!
Grow som' brains and grow som' brass.

When speakin' expect to be spoken to, even if you' gettin yelled at!!
Suck it up.

And finally, fix that short fuse, relax and be nice, you'll live longer.

We all experience such criticism at one point or another, and whether it is warranted or not, it's irrelevant: discussion is good (good for code, and, well, good for pretty much anything -- as a general strategy, discussion rocks).

btw - I ++ed merlyn ~ he wasn't rude ~ i didn't care to vote for you

• Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
• Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:

  <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>

• Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
• Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
