It depends what the "other software is", but speaking for myself,
I generally
try to make my software as compatible and interoperable as is practical. The 
problem you're describing here sounds like a bug in GoldEd's support of the 
Synchronet Message Base (SMB). How you would come to the conclusion that it has 
something to do with "how Rob and Stephen like to do things" is beyond me.
