jmp2001: I think you'll find you get further on this forum by not calling respected members "stupid" on your 8th post. I'm not telling you what to do, but... "you can catch more flies with honey than with vinegar," you know?

Second -- and I'll just cut to the chase here to avoid a long discussion on the topic -- I'm willing to bet that Eyes_Only asked that question because he wanted to make sure that you intend to use the shims on your own locks and not those of others. He even went out of his way to word the question that way to not sound accusatory from the get-go. That was nice of him.

This community is very welcoming of its new members but I'm sure you can understand that because of the nature of material discussed here, we will sometimes ask questions like that to make sure we're dealing with people who aren't up to no good. Lock bypass in general is something that is sort of looked down on here, so that coupled with your being a new will inevitably lead to questions. I assure you it's nothing personal. Welcome to the forum :)

He is not stupid... And if you are going to talk to members like that you better be joking, or trust me members will not help you.

Lean how to use your camera.

I agree that there should be a proper manner to discuss anything in this forum and we have to follow that.

He was telling YOU to use a smily if you were joking, your responce otherwise read like you are an arsehole and by the way we can all see youve only been here 5 mins so you are new,

It's no big deal to me. The OP brought out that he didn't say what he said out of spite or pride or nothing like that so it's ok. It takes more than that to hurt my feelings. :D
