Hi Michael,

It's a fair question, and this place is as good as any.

Nominations are generally done by current MVP's who notice someone posting
responses that possesses the preferred traits of a new MVP. Namely they
include, but are not limited to: accuracy (though everyone occasionally
misfires), consistency (shows that they have an understanding of the

subject
matter), longevity (no "flash in the pan" types, we like those that are
committed to helping others), and congeniality (abusiveness is not a
friendly trait, and a sense of compassion is often necessary to help those
that are less "in the know").

Tom;
I am snipping all that I am not commenting.

It is not necessary to respond to a Thank-you.
Even though the Thank-you is necessary to verify the fix and help
improve quality, there are those that think even that is a waste of
bandwidth.
Many MVPs choose not to respond at all or respond in a limited degree
to Thank-yous.
Many people here are on dial-up and some even pay by the amount of
bandwidth used.
A response to every thank you would impact those right in their
wallet.
I am less willing to do something affecting someone else's wallet and
this is probably true for many others.

You should see our in boxes and IMs from each other when something is
not right.
There is a great deal of communicating that you do not see and frankly
you should not see.
It is not sweeping anything under the rug, it is improving the
experience for everyone including you.

We all have different experiences with hardware and software.
The experiences can be first hand or second hand.
We all make recommendations based on those experiences.

Lastly
You clearly have little grasp of the process used to select MVPs,
since there are no hard and fast rules, there is much flexibility.
Even though you deny it, you name calling reflects a lot on your own
personal issues.
If you feel the need to call Carey or anyone else names to bolster
your position, it is clear you are incapable of supporting it.

We all have different experiences with hardware and software.
The experiences can be first hand or second hand.
We all make recommendations based on those experiences.

Lastly
You clearly have little grasp of the process used to select MVPs,
since there are no hard and fast rules, there is much flexibility.
Even though you deny it, you name calling reflects a lot on your own
personal issues.
If you feel the need to call Carey or anyone else names to bolster
your position, it is clear you are incapable of supporting it.

Q. "I have yet to see him (CF) express a reply of gratitude to one

who thanked him.

A. Not necessary....have you ever sent a thank-you note to someone

that already sent one?

HUH? That doesn't make sense, but do you ever say "you're welcome",
you ingrate? I have never seen it from you yet!


Q. "He even doesn't acknowledge his own peers that tell him when he

makes these errors".

A. Private email does this best and you have no knowledge how I

communicate with peers.

Poor cop out Carey, I have seen MVPs call you down, before you were an
MVP, and you got all ****y about it, instead of just admitting fault
when you were wrong. Now that you got the title, you can avoid it. I
am sure you don't enjoy being embarassed in private also, so you avoid
it altogether, by not addressing it in any venue!

Even if you addessed it prviately, and you were called on it, you
still make the same rrors, which tells me my last sentence in the
previous paragraph seems true.

Q. " I think it is very un-MVP like to recommend a registry

cleaner/maintenance program..."

A. Why? The only one I recommend is System Mechanic, and it's

featured in the Windows Catalog.

Being that nearly every other MVP in here other than you recommends to
others NOT to use registry cleaners, that should be telling in itself.
Just because MS approves it (which could be for marketing purposes,
rather than a real benefit), doesn't make it safe. Most people don't
know what is being cleaned out anyway, and those cleaners can remove
stuff that is non-Windows related, that the person NEEDS on their PC.
Uninstalling things is the best way.

Not a Microsoft MVP, and certainly not deserving of it based on Rick
Rogers standards.

Be Smart, really learn and express your knowledge of Windows, not just
link it! Be nice!
