And I'm pretty sure this isn't a Linux thread either.

It shows up with a bunny 'cause they ticked the box that says that there was a solution when closing the thread.

Hi all,

There are actually 2 new threads in HP-UX forum to congratulate new pros. I don't want to be negative in such threads, but it would be a good thing to remind people about Patrick's forum etiquette : only start a congratulation thread when people reach wizard status.

A more general note : Wouldn't it be nice to have link to Patrick's document in the left part of the forum (not only on the main page) ?

Regards,

Fred

Fred,

I agree, in principle, that congrats threads should not be started until a person at least achieves wizard status. However, Patrick's guide is only a suggestion and many people feel (quite strongly!) that ALL achievements should be recognised. I got into a debate about this a couple years ago. See the infamous "pre-coffee" posting in this thread and check John's eloquent, as always, response(s):

You might also note that even Dan himself posted a congratulatory response!
