So, I see no reason why a little copy and pasting is so bad

Thats what's wrong with the copy and paste.

To me, what the issue really boils down to is simple respect. Respect of one another's thoughts, feelings, and words here. If someone knows you don't want something done, but does it anyway, they are saying, "I understand your wish, but I don't respect it."

I don't understand why this is so hard for people to understand.

DocJohns post was very good. I just think some people aren't capable of respect.

I've decided to no longer post anything personal in the community. I would be quite upset if someone took what I wrote and posted it outside the community. I will keep personal information to pm's with people I trust.

My posting in the community will from now on be support to others only if I decide to keep coming to this site.
