Hi,

Why is there no need for this?

An MVP posting messages for no reason and from the sounds of his replies he
didn't
even read the original post in a thread of 1 message any way.

I guess Kevin Spencer who replied to the message with the subject
"First access to site displays MS junk, why?"
was correct. You are trying to pad your number of posts out.

The original post was a solution to a problem and it said so in the message
as well.
So this response that I'm replying to, made absolutely no sense.

My post may of been brutally frank, but the whole point of MS newsgroups
(as far as I am concerned) is to share knowledge and help people.

So when people reply who obviously didn't read the original post (or if they
did it totally went over there head) and then reply with utter garbage which
is of no use to man nor beast then they should expect a ticking off!!!

There is nothing worse than getting notified of a response to a post by
DeveloperDex only to find the response is no help at all (and doesn't even
try to help).

Regards,
Peter
