Re: [libreoffice-users] How to ask a question on Ask LibreOffice?

Hi Don,

Thanks for taking the time to reply.

Yes, as I said in my previous post "I log into Ask".

Even though I am not a fan of forums, I have posted to Ask in the past
and I was able to get my question listed. I guess there is some kind
of pretend AI sniffing at Ask questions and coming up with false
positives. Although I find it impossible to see anything in my very
reasonable and rational question which would trigger this defect.

Dave
