Please read this document.
When you send a message that says "I got an error when I tried to do something":
= Please Please Please =
Please copy and paste the text of the error.
Please please please. It is very helpful. So please please please please please
please do this.
I want to help. I really do. But it is very difficult when you don't include the
error text and only allude to how traumatizing reading that text was for you. It
is basically inviting me to troll you.
I am only human. I have only so much restraint.
So please include the error message in your message, before you send it.
Or even after you send it, if you realize you forgot. That would be okay too. I
would understand.
Just please do this.
Please.
= Thank You =
Thank you for reading this note.
