How have you fared with the Microsoft Communities forums?

https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us

I just get useless answers from there. Nobody understands the
question being asked.

That's if I'm thinking of the same place as you, I'm referring to
where a M$ representative answers for you. They call themselves
MVPs or something, and have no clue about anything.



An MVP is *not* a Microsoft representative. MVP stands for "Most
Valuable Professional" and it's an honorary title granted to people
who have been consistently helpful in answering questions.

Three other points:

1. Questions can be and are answered by anybody. It's not always an
MVP.

2. MVPs, like any other category, vary in how much they know and how
good they are at explaining something. Some know a lot, others know
much less. But as a general rule, most MVPs are very good. And some
ordinary, non-MVPs in the Microsoft forums are also very good.

3. Besides MVPs and other ordinary non-MVPs, occasionally a Microsoft
contractor (not an employee) answers a question. There are a few
exceptions--some of those Microsoft contractors are also very
good--but most of those people are terrible at answering questions.
For most of them, English is a second language, and besides expressing
themselves terribly, they often don't understand the question.

Fortunately, it's a small percentage of answers that come from those
contractors. But the forums would be a better place if Microsoft would
stop using them. I've several times suggested to Microsoft employees
that they stop using them, but I've been ignored.

What you say is correct, Mr Blake.

There's no need to be quite so modest though. You should be PROUD of
having being awarded the MVP accolade! :-)

https://social.technet.microsoft.com...crosoft%20mvp/


I had a notion that you were once a member of the VSOPs too, but cannot
find you featured on the 'rogues gallery', so perhaps I am mistaken!

http://www.aumha.org/vsop.htm

I expect you know some of the names listed there. There's one notable
fellow missing on that particular showing though.

Randy Knobloch aka siljaline (AH-VSOP)

Randy Knobloch ROTFPMSL! Like that's his real name.

Difficult to believe, isn't it?!!!!! ;-)

I guess he gets an erection when swimming in a Scottish lake.

You get "tired", alright. Other people call it drunk, but let's go with
tired. It sounds better. I changed the sign above just for you.

Is there another way to check how many folk actually visit a website?

Sure. Ask the site owner for a copy of his visitor logs. Don't be
surprised if he doesn't comply. Some people don't respond well to
obvious stalking attempts, as you know.

died: Alex Nichol and Robear Dyer. And some of those who are listed
there as MVPs no longer are.

Randy Knobloch was listed on LinkedIn as a Security Consultant

In fact, we messaged one another!

You mean LinkedIn is a real place? I just get spam from them from people I've never heard of wanting to engage in some kind of conversation about a business I'm not in.
