From: Charlie Russel - MVP on 9 Jun 2010 10:47 I know. My point was simply that it isn't whether MS counts my (Usenet) posts towards some magical minimum number to be an MVP that influences where and how I answer questions and help users. My MVP-ness is a nice recognition, but not the reason. Giving back to the community is the reason. The only reason. -- Charlie. http://msmvps.com/blogs/russel "Steve Foster" <stevefoster(a)invalid.invalid> wrote in message news:xn0gv56vi3vbk85032(a)news.eternal-september.org... > Charlie Russel - MVP wrote: > >> Well, Steve, I did this long before I was an MVP (in fact, long >> before MS even HAD MVPs) and I'll do it long after I stop being an >> MVP.
