nah, i long disagreed with
the notion that mvp's were volunteers. volunteering is donating time without compensation. seems to me that being permitted to use a title like ms mvp is compensation as well as an award. seems to me that there are other benefits provided to ms-mvp's too. can you think of anything that you have received at a discount or for free as the result of being an ms-mvp awardee? if so, then you are not a volunteer and in fact obligated to perform in accordance to the mvp program directives. -------- just because microsoft doesn't compensate ms-mvp's with money, it does compensate them with other things that are of value. and in return, microsoft ascertains the benefit of cheap customer service for its microsoft customers. of course, the above applies to the discussion groups and the q&a's, but ms-mvps are also awarded to authors and code writers as well in order to dilute the true purpose of the mvp program, ie microsoft's bottom line. -- db·´¯`·...¸)))º "PA Bear [MS MVP]" wrote in message ...
