Or how about the error message that ecstownw issues?
To get a good answer, ask a Smart Question. Similarly, if you want a bug fixed, write a Useful Bug Report. No TTDPatch crashlog? Then follow directions.

If you saw error messages then tell the programmer, carefully and precisely, what they were. They are important! At this stage, the programmer is not trying to fix the problem: they're just trying to find it. They need to know what has gone wrong, and those error messages are the computer's best effort to tell you that. Write the errors down if you have no other easy way to remember them, but it's not worth reporting that the program generated an error unless you can also report what the error message was.

In particular, if the error message has numbers in it, do let the programmer have those numbers. Just because you can't see any meaning in them doesn't mean there isn't any. Numbers contain all kinds of information that can be read by programmers, and they are likely to contain vital clues. Numbers in error messages are there because the computer is too confused to report the error in words, but is doing the best it can to get the important information to you somehow.

Well, it sounds like somebody crossed your factory with a large cat.

That, or you need to learn to proofread your posts.
You also need to replace your keyboard with one that has a working shift key.

You don't need to type WITH!!!! such sudden enthusiasm. Type your 'with's in lower case with no exclamation marks.

Just learn to spell it right. It's "with" not "WITH!!!!!"! The "WITH!!!!!" is just there so that you notice and fix it yourself by editing the post.

Using a spell checker would be a start.

Minor problem there: "WITH!!!!!" is a valid English word.

So? Get one.
