Rules of Conduct
Welcome to the Peer-to-Peer Newsgroups
Thank you for participating in the newsgroups! We hope you will enjoy using
the newsgroups as an area to exchange information, tips, and techniques
regarding Microsoft products.
To ensure a smooth flow of information in the newsgroups, please note the
Expectations of Service and Rules of Conduct for newsgroups.
Thanks again for your interest and participation in the newsgroups!
Expectations of Service
a.. Microsoft's Role: Microsoft does not offer any formal support in the
public newsgroups. Instead, Microsoft sponsors the newsgroups as a platform
for participating in the global community of Microsoft customers and product
experts. In addition, Microsoft may monitor the newsgroups to ensure
accuracy of information and assist MVPs as needed.
b.. Microsoft MVPs: Microsoft MVPs (Most Valuable Professionals) volunteer
technical answers and expertise in the newsgroups. The Microsoft MVPs come
from a wide range of backgrounds and professions, with a willingness to give
their time, expertise, and advice to enhance the technical skills of others
within the newsgroups. For more information on the MVP program or how to
receive consideration as an MVP, please see the MVP Online Brochure.
Rules of Conduct
a.. Appropriate Language: The purpose of the newsgroups is to exchange
technical information and expertise on Microsoft products. Please avoid
personal attacks, slurs, and profanity in your messages.
b.. Message Topics: Please keep the topic of messages relevant to the
subject of the newsgroup. It's normal for some message topics to drift from
the stated subject. However, to ensure maximum impact and benefit for all
involved, please keep your messages close to the newsgroup's subject.
c.. Advertising/Solicitation: The newsgroups are for peer-to-peer
assistance on Microsoft products. Participants are asked to refrain from
posting advertisements or solicitations not pertaining to the intended use
and purpose of the newsgroups.
Sincerely Yours,
Jihad Al-Hazineh,
