Yes, but you don't then go onto the dvd forum and complain and whine because it does exactly what it says it would do.

Awhile ago (seems like years, but probably only 6 months) I came here asking for help mapping my library to dropbox. Kovid warned me, and warned me about having Calibre open on multiple computers at once. Well, I didn't listen, and ended up wiping something out. I came back, and picked up some suggestions about how to fix it, AND I DON'T DO THAT ANYMORE.

Now, I got a personal warning from Kovid, and did it anyway. I don't think extra dialog boxes and bold fonts are going to deter amyone. After all, everyone makes mistakes. You just don't want to make a habit of it.

I don't understand the rm reference, but when I got my first computer, I was unhappy with my initial file structure. So I typed format C: We all have to learn.

Learning you get more flys with honey is a good lesson, also.
