Let's give this all a rest already. Neither Matt nor I meant any disrespect to you, Kat. We were merely discussing proper usage and definition of the words "que" and "queue". We are a community of developers, and when someone posts code that is incorrect, we correct if for them.
"we correct if for them"? I am merely questioning your use of the words, please do not take this personally, even though i am quoting you and replying to your post.
And the fact of the matter is, the word that you used was not correct.
I abbreviated "queue" to "que". I abbreviate "euphoria" to "eu". I know "que" is a spanish word, i took several years of spanish in school, and it's an important enough language that i wrote code in Tiggr to do translations. At least getting a task msg is a lot like asking the task msg handler "what did taskx send me?". Never the less, i was not writing in spanish. When i write in php or mirc, i do not adhere to eu syntax, keywords, or style.
I object to kinz's icon suggestion because it is "eu" only in russian.
I'm sure we all appreciate your contributions very much. I know I do. But you can't keep starting drama and reverting into this self-defamatory attitude every time someone says something about something you do. No one's trying to attack you or bring you down, you just seem to take people's criticisms way too personally.

Yeas, i hear the same thing when the neighbor commanded his dogs to attack me on my property, day after day for years. It wasn't personal. And my threshold for Matt is zero after his behavior on the devlist, so i have little incentive to explain my use of words when he cannot understand the word "to".
