Dots and commas in badnodes.xml ?

Hello, been trying to get my GB to add a blacknode.
In the guides, the several other topics like these I don't see the answer I'm looking for.

So my character dies, I open debug file, find the last deposit with the cordinates before I died which was 5636,89, 1931,159, 517,3533
I goto badNodes.xml, scroll all the way down, copy one of the already existing lines;

<bad_location><name>Saronite Deposit</name><waypoint>7214.042 -2058.897 769.2377</waypoint><comment>Manual Blacklist</comment></bad_location>

And make a new line that looks like this;
<bad_location><name>Saronite Deposit</name><waypoint>5636,89, 1931,159, 517,3533</waypoint><comment>Manual Blacklist</comment></bad_location>

Save .xml file and re-loading GB and he tries to get that node anyway.

Sooo...I thought, maybe it's the commas, thats what differes here.. So I replace the commas, with dots! Tadaa!

<bad_location><name>Saronite Deposit</name><waypoint>5636.8. 1931.159. 517.3533</waypoint><comment>Manual Blacklist</comment></bad_location>

Saving, Reloading GB, and he still tries to farm it.
And my day goes on, and GB finds my arch enemy vein the next time he flies by it..it's a very bad spot to dive down at. So I thought well I'll just let him figure this one out himself. And so he did! So I open the badnodes.xml and watch how the program did...well the bastard made the node look like this:

<bad_location><name>Saronite Deposit</name><waypoint>5636,89 1931,159 517,3533</waypoint><comment>Automatic blacklist during manouver loop 2010-03-12 16:51:27 </comment></bad_location>

Next time he ran past that node, he didn't try to mine it.
And I'm going, well.... and looking through the logs again...now I see another difference between the automaticlly added blacknode and the one I tried to manually add.

In the debug logs, the node looked
5636,89, 1931,159, 517,3533
And the automaticly added node looked
5636,89 1931,159 517,3533

So.. 2/5 commas missing! And it's right after 5636,89 and 1931,159

In badNodes.xml files I can find here, everyone all have dots instead of commas but my GB adds with commas. And not only that, he only accept the commas within the cordinates, and not between them.
The debug file copy & paste cordinates dosn't work if I don't remove two of the five commas.

Again, sorry for this..I'm just not finding the answer to this somewhere.

Just flew by another one, this time it's easier for you to see my problem.

The debug file says:
[16:52:23:203]:Alarm: Problem manouvering towards Titanium Vein at ( 5941,548, 1912,958, 567,5397 ).
[16:52:32:446]:Blacklist this node.

And badNodes.xml says
<bad_location><name>Titanium Vein</name><waypoint>5941,548 1912,958 567,5397</waypoint><comment>Automatic blacklist during manouver loop 2010-03-12 16:52:32 </comment></bad_location>

Two commas missing and that's it. I'm just asking because the previous questions about this have been answered several times and it's easy to find it with the search function, but none of the guides or the previous answers about it mentions anything about this.

I'm a noob, It's my obligation to ask you stupid questions :)

in your log should be a report if you have "bad" badnodes
