read the instructions on the freaking box

When the error message says "there's a problem with the server", it may just be there there is a problem with the server.

You don't need to go through my code looking for the problem. The system would tell me in no uncertain terms if there was a problem with my code.

And if there is a problem with my code, perhaps it would make sense to first CHECK THAT THERE ARE NO PROBLEMS WITH THE SERVER before looking for an alternative?

It's like when you're looking for a DVD and you can't find it and you ask someone for help and the first thing they do is GO LOOK WHERE YOU ALREADY LOOKED. *facepalm*

I especially hate it when you tell them "I looked there already. Twice." and they STILL go and look there.

ARGH.

I still haven't heard back from him about this - or any of the other four things I've mailed him about in the last few days.

Customer service at its best.

I swear only 1/10 people have common sense.
