Re: Not getting feedback points in return for answers
Of course it doesn't always happen, but that's people, whether it's on the street or in a forum.
Take it easy, we're all on the VMS side here ;-)
Cheers,
Art

The "Reopen Thread" button offers a solution
to that problem.

That's nice to know, but why bother. Another waste of time.
Art Says,
I completely disagree!
-- That's OK, we can disagree. But we don't have to resort to insults or put downs like Steve does. Oh by the way, Steve, congrats on your Pharaoh status. I'm sure that really helps your self esteem.
Art says,

here ;-)
-- Here is one point I can agree on. Well, at least we can all agree that VMS is the greatest Operating System ever devised!
Well, enough retorts. I'm sure Steve will have to get the last word in.

Re: Not getting feedback points in return for answers
Got kids? How about when they get involved in sports. Seems like EVERYONE gets a trophy (aka points) regardless. 10 and 0 record - trophy. 0 and 10 - trophy. Used to not be that way. Is it better today?

Re: Not getting feedback points in return for answers
Let's try a little social experiment with this forum. Let's eliminate the points completely and see how many people still answer questions about VMS?
I think you're right, though, political correctness has gone too far in this country. I guess it's taken us (i.e., U.S.) a little over 200 years to forget that socialism and communism doesn't work!

If _ANYONE_ in this forum does do without "political correctness", then it _IS_ mr SMS aka Steven Schweda.
And although I personally prefer to put things in milder words, most (all?) of the times I think he _DOES_ see things rather sharp and correct.
I personnally usually reserve bluntness towards people I know well enough that they: a. prefer the hard truth out in the open or b. they have more than once demonstrated that the cannot accept a technically correct answer because it in not on the same rails as there political desire.
Furthermore, quoting Hein, I do not attibute to malice to what can be simple ingorance and uncompetence, until proven otherwise.
And let's be glad that there do exist different styles. Without them the world would be SO dull!!
Finallt, I do have to line up for the point we all agree on: VMS _IS_ (by far) the best OS in existance.
Proost.
Have one on me.

Fine with me, but that would run the risk of
spawning threads involving juvenile
complaints about missing points assignments,
which then degenerate into social commentary.

Re: Not getting feedback points in return for answers
C'mon people, I'm pretty sure we're all "on in years" here ie. not 14 years old in high school!
Let's all try and play nice ... it's Friday, there's beverages chilling in the fridge for later and it's almost Xmas!
If anything, let's taunt the Windows folks ;-)
Cheers, seriously,
Art
