Hey Metro,
I think you need to relax a little. I can't see anywhere in this guy's post where he was asking for sympathy or even any encouragement. He was simply asking whether the actual results mattered and just gave us a bit of background into his reasons for asking. What's the problem with that?
He then had added a disclaimer at the end of his post that he is happy to do his time in an attempt to avoid the serial bitches on here getting their knickers in a twist over a simple question.
