Hi all,
I figured I would post this and let you know what some of the moderators are up to. There are a number of us that feel we have been letting threads drift too much and that is not great for the original poster (OP)
What I am asking is that we try to stay directly on the OPs question and not expand on it until we hear back from the OP and they ask further questions. Too often I see 20 posts that have great information but are only marginally related to the OPs question before the OP has even returned.
We are asking that if you have info that is not directly related to the OPs question, and you cannot wait for the OP to respond before you must share it with us .... open a new thread.
They are free and that way it is your thread to do with as you want.
Here is what I see
New member: Is a weather proof switch required in a bathroom?
First response: See code section XYZ
Next response: What color is the bathroom.
Next response: What is the make, model, serial number, color of the thing you are switching?
Next response: In East Pawtucket they require fans in bathrooms.
Next response: You did not phrase the question to my liking, why do posters never provide enough info?????
Next response: Take the switch to a test bench, connect it to Binford 6723 test-o-matic and check the Retro Encabulator output, it should be 0.00001 to 0.00002
The OP comes back, reads this and says I am outta here, I just asked a simple question. :jawdrop:
No one should take this personal and I fully admit that I am guilty of it as well. I am going to make an effort to change that and ask the same of you.
Thanks in advance for your consideration.
Bob
