      <description>They also do that sometimes because they want their responses to sound more official.</description>

      <description>You were telling people thos atea question answer area was not the proper place that it was tips and trips.Unfortunately, there is a separate section for tips and tricks maybe you belong there. Now, people have to go to the 3 lines up at the top of community. And find their specific&lt;BR /&gt;Series of galaxys&lt;BR /&gt;I knew or not in the tips and tricks area either. Plus people should watch out for the moderator's favorites, which definitely might not be ours.</description>
