was I being rude?

Thats what the smiley face was for
..not a demand, more of a wink wink nudge nudge kind of thing, guess I was misunderstood. Anyways, can anyone share some insight into how JR achieves the distant corona effects with their signals? I am using Grahamsea's scripted NYC trilight signals but find them too dim for my liking. thanks!
 
Yes, a bit.

'Are you listening?' is not a good way to start a request for something.

Putting it in the right forum would help too. JR already have a thread asking folks what they should make.
 
Justin,

I see you're new here. The community doesn't like what are called 'gimmy pigs', and this request came across kind of 'strong' to put it mildly.

You could have rephrased your question a bit differently and this would have been taken in a different way.

Sadly, remember that we're dealing with the written word. What may seem to be a light comment, even with a smiley face, people will take it the wrong way due to how you try to make it funny because there is no way to see the body language that would have gone along with your comment. If this was a person-to-person comment, you could have shrugged and smiled or even laughed and this probably would have been fine.

So for now, don't worry about this. Let it pass and don't do something like this again.

John
 
You're correct, I did not think about the whole lost in translation problem. I posted rather hastily ;) Found the JR forum too, thanks much!
