TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
It's not the content but the delivery. Many people have indicated this
to you before.
DFD = good
Please reconsider the tone and tact you use when responding to or
posting new threads, and try to supply actionable or useful
information, not just "this is why I use DFDs". And please refrain
from comments around "no one is doing documentation correctly",
because in a forum of technical writers, all those reading your posts
are the "everyone" you speak of. It doesn't go over well... kind of
like calling your mother in law a "fat pig" to her face.
