It really wasn't so clear what you were looking for. It is to you, but not necessarily to the reader. Richard gave you some good feedback. You may not like what he said but the sarcastic rejoinders aren't going to get you much help, which presumably is what you came looking for. On the response you've gotten ... You are asking questions to support a business that a lot of people don't like and don't want to have anything to do with because they think it's immoral. Frankly it's not especially different from someone asking if they can get some help with a Ku Klux Klan or John Birch Society web site. I wouldn't even consider being helpful with such a project, or with yours. You can say all those who disagree with what you're doing are religious fanatics or lacking in manhood, as you did with the person who posted the rant. But you'd be pretty far wrong. Do you expect to just get help because it's a business with an interesting programming problem even though a lot of people find the "product" morally objectionable? If so you are not paying attention to how most people operate. People tend to not only refuse to help with things they find immoral, but to (surprise!) speak up about them. This is a good thing even if it is inconvenient for those like you who are the recipients.
