I can't speak for Tyler (I assume your message was meant for him) but as
for myself:  I saw a glob of practically unreadable text and simply
passed it off as spam, concluding that any well-intentioned, moderately
intelligent human being wouldn't have intentionally posted such a
monstrosity and actually expected an intelligent response.

I'm guessing Tyler's message was to help you so that your messages don't
continue to be ignored by people who may otherwise be of assistance.
