Before you get yourself permaently banned, let me try to explain why I mentioned the word "mother" in my post a few days ago.
If you cannot understand the machine translation of this text, please find someone who speaks English to explain it to you.
In English it is commonplace and courteous to use the word "please" when asking a question and "thank you" when an answer is received.
Your posts were lacking that.
A common way of reminding young children learning to speak in English who also forget these words is to ask them if their mother had taught them to say "please" and "thank you".
So my P.S. was a small joke asking you to be a little more polite and add "please" to your requests.
Notice that the next poster mentioned "thank you" in a similar manner.
You have completely misinterpreted the sense of the post - it was a gentle reminder, not an insult.
I do not insult members on the forum.
Now on to more serious matters.
Even if you were insulted, posting several insults back is not the way a civilised person behaves.
You will notice that I am a Moderator here - insulting Moderators is not a good idea in any forum.
Jos and Valik are also Moderators (as well as Developers) and you will see that they were the ones to ban you.
If you insult one of us you insult us all, so please do not do it again.
At present you cannot post here - in a few days when the ban lapses you will be able to post again.
Please rejoin the forum but restrain your temper. No-one here is going to insult you - if they do then the Moderators will deal with them.
I hope that explains the matter fully.
