They cannot use reason to show the message to be wrong so they try to feel somehow superior by attacking the messenger. They cling to their attacks and ignore the message time and time again.

If so do I think > there is the info required to do so? I wanted “back on the site” to satisfy myself that X704 is not simply a playground for bad guys - nowhere do I see a formal definition of why the phbb was set up and by whom. Excluding me clearly demonstrates, to me, that someone is hiding something! I noticed that WZZZ was particularly acerbic even though he has membership of The Lounge on the ASC forums. Logic tells me that by the law of averages, there MUST be ‘bad guys' operating on the ASC forums. Unless you know different! I believe one has right to know the REAL person who is encouraging folk to break Apple's rules whilst, at the same time, masquerading as a top poster in the ASC forums. https://discussions.apple.com/profile/BDAqua/subscriptions Have you, by chance, ever read this thread of mine (right to the YT clip at the end!? https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/t/669625/av-for-mac-can-you-answer-these-unanswered-questions/ -- David
