in reply to Why do I get such negative votes?

You got very few votes, so it's probably just that you ticked off someone. Some people might be annoyed by your signature. Some people might be annoyed by your multiple thank-you replies. Some people might be annoyed by the way in which you asked an extremely basic question in an extremely brief way, without showing any prior effort towards figuring it out (it makes it appear like a cut-and-pasted homework question).

    Points taken. I should have demonstrated, "How I understood it", and followed How To Ask Questions The Smart Way. I have learnt my lesson and will strive to post as I wish others to post in the most helpful and complete way possible.
