Please don't CROSSPOST. It cuts down on the effectiveness of responses, leads to people wasting their time answering what others have already answered, makes for difficult discussion, and is generally just annoying and bad form.

Also, as mentioned in your post in the other forum, don't flag your question as urgent, even if it is for you. Claiming urgency is very likely to be counter-productive: most forum regulars will simply ignore such messages as rude and selfish attempts to elicit immediate and special attention.

Besides, unless a legion of ninja lemmings is about to chase you over the edge of a cliff, your problem probably isn't as urgent as you think.

Thanks!
