It's actually amazing what you can post there. I did find out this afternoon, though, that they apparently block me from embedding YouTube videos. <LOL> Ya just gotta play 'em like the Big-Mouthed Bass they are.

Got my first thread locked, and all I had to do was drag an ExecVP and Dingleballs into the same sentence. Apparently, this post pushed them over the edge. http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/vbgeneral/thread/ba2234f8-cc2f-41c8-8c1f-551558023c3e#8f1ad7a7-be6f-4c73-b46b-f3c3f5a201ef Seems like someone wants to play a round of whack-a-mole? <eg> -- ..NET: It's About Trust! http://vfred.mvps.org Customer Hatred Knows No Bounds at MSFT ClassicVB Users Regroup! comp.lang.basic.visual.misc Free usenet access at http://www.eternal-september.org

Examples: It is pretty clear what their intentions are. We saw the 'invites' from nntp(a)microsoft direct people to the VB.general forum, where that forum says VB6 questions are not to be posted. Now, the portal page that 'Beth' was to update _includes_ a Visual Basic 6 link! http://www.microsoft.com/communities/forums/default.mspx You get one guess where that link takes you.... <lol> LFS
