Rules of Conduct for the Vista General Newsgroup

For those who are unfamilar with the Rules of Conduct for the
Microsoft Newsgroups, here's your opportunity to learn the rules
of expected mature adult behavior when posting.

Rules of conduct:

We hope that you find the time you spend in Microsoft's Community Web sites
to be useful and fun. To ensure that everyone has the best possible
experience, we've established a few guidelines. Please take a moment to read
them, and thank you for participating in a Microsoft Community.

Expectations of service:

Microsoft's Role: Microsoft does not offer formal support for the
communities you'll find here. Instead, our role is to provide a platform for
people who want to take advantage of the global community of Microsoft
customers and product experts. Microsoft may monitor content to ensure the
accuracy of the information you'll find, but any information provided by
Microsoft staff is offered "AS IS" with no warranties, and no rights are
conferred. You assume all risk for your use.

Microsoft MVPs: Microsoft MVPs (Most Valuable Professionals) volunteer
technical answers and expertise in many Microsoft Community Web sites.
Microsoft MVPs come from a wide range of backgrounds and professions. All
share a willingness to give their time, expertise, and advice to enhance the
technical skills of others. MVPs are not Microsoft employees and Microsoft
has no expectations of MVPs beyond the expectations of courtesy,
professionalism, and adherence to the Community rules that we ask of all
Microsoft community members. For more information on the MVP program and how
you can become an MVP, see http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/.

Rules of conduct:

Appropriate Language: The purpose of our communities is to exchange
technical information and expertise about Microsoft products. Please avoid
personal attacks, slurs, and profanity in your interactions.

Relevance to Topics: Please make sure that your postings in discussion
groups and chats are relevant to the subject at hand. It is normal for some
topics to drift from the stated subject. However, to ensure maximum benefit
for everyone, we encourage you to keep your postings as close to the subject
as possible.

Advertising/Solicitation: These communities were created as a forum for
providing peer-to-peer assistance on Microsoft products and services. We ask
that you refrain from posting advertisements or solicitations that do not
pertain directly to the intended use and purpose of the newsgroup or chat.

Confidentiality: Please keep in mind that our communities are public spaces,
so don't post anything that you don't want the world to see. Credit card
numbers, product keys, and other confidential information, including anything
covered under a non-disclosure agreement (NDA), should not be posted to a
discussion group, chat, or other community.

Are you telling me my comment will not be posted. I was not rude, did not
use bad language, but I was truthful. This is my first time to comment on
anything on this forum and looking at some of the other comments people seem
to agree with me. Vista is not user friendly if you are a Novice.

I don't think the general rules that were posted meant in any way to imply
that you were rude.
If you don't like Vista and say so...There is no one who is going to stop
you from making your comments.

I am still sitting on the fence of evaluation as far as Vista is concerned.

Your posts are welcome, good or bad about Vista. Usenet news groups are
open news groups and that is the way it has evolved. It is a open and free
discussion medium.

I am hoping Carey means the Franks and FYI types that go into endless loops
of retort.

If it extends to finding fault with Vista - too bad so sad. Just ignore
them. If they want that kind of feel good news, they should go to a
moderated and internal group on Microsoft systems where real issues are
filtered.

Feel free to express yourself.

I didn't now that children aren't allowed to post here? What is the age
limit?

> Rules [that do not apply to me]

Sorry, but I post through my USENET provider's servers, and not through
MS's servers, so my USENET provider's rules apply to me, not MS's.

If MS wants to have total control of this group, then it should pull it
from the USENET, and make all you punters use the CDO Web interface.

I won't be holding my breath.

Carey is a volunteer that wields absolutely no power at all. What he is
best at is doing is searches of the technet database, and copying and
pasting from technet to here.

Have fun, and ignore whatever the haters of free speech have to say.

You damn retard, the majority of people aren't in, coming from or
posting to Microsoft hosted groups so shove your so-called rules up
your stupid ass since they don't apply to 90% of the people reading
this which confirms again what mind numbing assholes MVP's actually
are and how willing they always are to kiss up to Microsoft and ignore
the real issues that impact so many users.

No such thing as "Microsoft Newsgroups". There are Microsoft servers and
the clunky web interface but these "rules" don't apply to Usenet. This
was pointed out to you the last time you posted this tripe. What didn't
you understand when it was explained to you before?

Alias

These Newsgroups are not moderated, otherwise YOU would not be here!

Go and have a wank somehwere else, Frisch(Post A Link Frisch, lol).

Or, would you prefer I start again about your lies?
