Greedy, ain't he?
Him? Accorcing to her profile she's female!
Many thanks and good luck! :o)
The full solution would give him the answers.
Someone has provide a link previously to the full MOS solutions.

I find these clues very difficult to follow the way the old mill sets them out (we have suggested he does each clue on a new line but that suggestion wasn't taken on board. I have also found questions that he/she has asked before and have been answered are asked again by the poster.
^ I agree they're difficult to read and the posting is a bit eccentric.
Always room for a few mavericks though?
There are some posters who love doing crosswords and will come on for help when they get stuck on a few.

There are a few posters who seem to want the answers to almost every clue, as they are seeking to win a prize.

I'm suggesting that we could simply provide a link to the complete solution for those that want it. Those that prefer the challenge of a crossword needn't look and could just post their questions as normal.

For those like me, Lie-In King, kayakamina and loads of others who like helping people, there would still be more than enough enquiries from posters seeking help on just the odd clue.
Yeah, but that poster's typing has always been a tad "eccentric" & IMO there's no need to post a list like that & possibly make them feel bad.

We don't know their circumstances - perhaps they enjoy the human touch when getting an answer?
Okay, sorry, I thought I was illustratiing the point. I still wonder from something said previously whether some posters would just prefer all the answers and we could make it available fo them if they want it.

I agree we can ignore or answer posts as we want, and posters should be able to ask as many questions as they want. I prefer to help those first who have made clearly made an effort, set the clues out well and take on board suggestions.
I think in this instance you have made your point Factor and it is now best left. We do not know everyone's situation and if it irks you, then steer clear when you see the name pop up.
