This is sad. You call yourself "valuable" to Microsoft yet you
slander them in the same post? You might as well renounce your MVP
status now before it's taken from you.

Microsoft doesn't not revoke MVP because someone speaks their mind in
stating the obvious with regard to the MCP Program.

Hey Mark,

I do find it funny that you've been personally attacked because you
discredit the value of certification. And Algood has done his part it seems
in trying to discredit you himself. I too find this funny. I think they've
figured MVP means you got certified when in fact certifications have nothing
to do with the MVP program. I find the whole arguement amusing. I don't
think we've met, beacuse I didn't recognize the name, but I'm sure if we do
at a summit eventually I will buy you a beer.

I'm used to it by now...

That's cool too - I have no issue with anyone doing that...

Indeed not.

In fact, the MVP programme positively *encourages* any and all feedback
(good and bad) on Microsoft products and services...

Are you referring to me? If so, I have not said a word in this thread
till now. And what have I said about Mark in any other thread?

No, I am perfectly aware of how the MVP program works.

You asked where you said anything. Well I read the certblog after you posted
a link at Trika's site about your email with Prometric and I read something
else instead. So yes I know what you said about Mark. As for being over 21.
No I'm only 12 years old. I mean come on man, is that really the question
you want to ask me?

No, what I really want to ask is do you do any research at all before
you speak? I did not nor have not posted anything on CertBlog. The blog
belongs to CertGuard, Inc. and I did not post anything about Mark on
that or any other site or blog. So you are 0 for 2 now. Care to strike
out?

Regardless, thanks for visiting CertBlog. Have a good day.

Um, rev, that was ME. Pay attention boy.

#1, I never said anything about Mark having certs. I pretty much assumed
that he didn't have any because of the way he was ragging on them so much.

#2, I, too, know perfectly well how the MVP program works, and I know that
there are credentials that must be met in order to attain that level. I also
know that this MVP award is only for the duration of one year. My comment
about the letters after his name was merely a reference to the fact that I
hope he does not get nominated again when the time comes.

#3, His promotion of braindumps in public microsoft newsgroups does violate
various rules of the MVP Program and other Microsoft Terms of Use. If you
want to buy this guy a beer for promoting braindumps, then you're not the
***** that I thought you were.

#4, Nowhere did I mention his name, nor did I refer any direct links that
would have lead anyone here to figure out who he is. The only connection
I've made between the two is from here, in which case the reader would have
already known who he was.

#5, you should really take care of those typos, it makes it difficult to
understand what you're saying.
