no wonder you don't like using "bizness lingo"...you don't even know what
"scope creep" is. and no, trying to figure out what he needs would not be
scope creep. it would be a wise, proactive step in having the op state what
he needs in more detail so we can quit guessing.
chatroom? once? so having chatted with you, he rejected your nefarious
advances and won't speak to you anymore?
btw, your statement doesn't even try to counter his point. you are just
trying to avert attention from it...that make him look more correct, and you
more silly.
"scope creep"...that's funny.
