Where do people like this get off?

Okay - The guy may be having problems with some code in an article... And we all have bad days from time-to-time... But don't go around hurling abuse like this[^] over an article on CP. Especially one that has 53 votes and a rating of 4.33 which suggests that a lot of people actually liked it. [EDIT] And I wonder who went round this entire thread voting everyone a "1"? [/EDIT]

Nothing worse then criticism in this manner useful criticism can be very helpful if it is approched in a thoughtful manner. This wasn't very thoughtful also some people just don't care to curb there language choices. Without the filtered words it might have come across as somewhat useful. :) Most likely it was oriented in jealosy and they should consider posting their own article and see how it feels when they read posts like that. Not so surprisingly a lot of posts that folks make here are well intended and thoughtful :)

Colin you seen to be getting a abused of late, between this buffoon and the ADO message board (1). What is the world coming to, people ask for advice, you provide a good solid answer and they go off half-cocked. :eek: ...After several edits I'm afraid that anything else I have to say just isn’t lounge material. Don’t let these umm wankers, get you down, that article is worth a solid 5. 1: Update 100 000 rows....[^]
I can only assume that they are want to do everything in code which I agree with Colin is perhaps not the ideal place to be doing this business. If they insist on performing everything in code, I strongly suggest they find a way of using transactions or at least Try Catch blocks. Personally, I credit Colin with trying to help I would have stopped reading at DAO and I hope that Colin will not become discouraged by the replies.
