    Why have you done this?

    At 1.10 you ask a question

    At 2.43 you ask the same question in a different thread

    And at 3.09 you ask the same question again (this time with numbers to help me in case I’m not able to understand the question without the numbers!)

    Please, DON’T DO THIS

    Please, don’t multiple post

    Accepted – but, no, I shall not delete it. Anyone reading it in the future will hopefully pay attention to it
