Are you serious?

cak, your post was a bit difficult to read . . . try to spell words correctly . . . if not to be legible, at least so others with the same question can search your post . . .

anyway, your question has been asked a dozen times:

If it still doesn't work let us know.

cak, I was the first one that read your post. I didn't answer it because I felt disrespected by your language. If you think it's cool, change your mind. You do that chatting on-line with your buddies, not asking for help on forums!

The main problem for me is that while leaving out letters (e.g. eliminating vowels, replacing "for" with 4, replacing "th" with "d") might make typing easier and faster for you, it makes reading and understanding your post slower/harder for everyone else.  Given that you're asking other people to help you, this comes off as somewhat disrespectful.  I appreciate that you are willing to make an effort to communicate better

What did you think when you wrote this post? You are saying you are sorry for using bad words, and that you will use better, yet you do it again. Just to list a few of them: "k", "'m", "Thanx" and "4"

Could you perhaps also edit your posts? It's actually for your own sake. People will approach you MUCH more seriously and kinder if you use proper words.
