[QUOTE="jeallen01, post: 1148180, member: 176704"] [USER=418685]@Stevey7[/USER] Why would you want to re-open the other thread because there's seems little, [I]if anything, [/I]more that forum members could add to what we have already told you on the subject of the Pace 2600 issues - unless, of course, you wanted to ask if anyone else could repair it [I](to which I think any answers would be along the lines of "Why bother/waste the time trying to?")?[/I] AFAIK there's no forum "rule" on closing threads but, in general, they are closed when the subject in question has reached an obvious deadend &/or is simply going around in pointless circles and is wasting everyone's time - and especially when the solutions have been positively identified in other threads, and there are a lot more interesting subjects to discuss! PS: this is the last time I'll comment on anything to do with that closed thread! PPS: Please understand that is an amateur forum and we do try to help forum/satellite newbies. HOWEVER, there are sometimes limits to the extent we [I]can [/I]help and to the extent we will be [I]prepared to try[/I] to help. We get many sensible and straightforward questions, some fairly difficult ones, and, unfortunately, a few where the person asking has either not properly read &/or understood an existing or new thread, and so asks for something that we can't provide - and then [U]keeps [/U]asking the same "irritating" [I](I'll not say "stupid" for fear of that word being misinterpreted!) [/I]question even after being told/given what we know/can help with! We are generally quite patient people, but questions in that last category will tend to get final short and "quite pointed" responses (OR no response at all)! [/QUOTE]
