Mate... it's about the the integrity of the person asking the question. If for example you had said... "I've asked this question here but it's failed to extract any real response"... no issues, or you had said I've posted this here and to date there's been minimal response.... again no issues. We will if possible try to assist you. On the other hand if you cross post and don't want to acknowledge it... members here ( who may well be members elsewhere) take this as a sign that you don't recognise their contributions and may well not try to assist. If you wish to post here in this forum, please feel free tp do so, but do so with complete honesty.
