Guest Confucious Posted March 25, 2009 Report Posted March 25, 2009 There is a viscous rumour going round that Paul is no longer an MVP. Can someone please explain the root of these rumours?
Guest Neil5459 Posted March 25, 2009 Report Posted March 25, 2009 Still on the MS MVP List B) Details are a bit sketchy though!
Guest Christopher Woods Posted March 25, 2009 Report Posted March 25, 2009 Urgh, a viscous rumour. Is it sticky to the touch? B) (had to have a sly dig that you for that, sorry :() Paul still shows up on the MVP directory (https://mvp.support.microsoft.com/profile=EB86C193-2F6A-4930-BF28-588D2F6C2DF0) so I wouldn't regard that rumour as accurate unless it comes from someone at Microsot.
Guest Confucious Posted March 25, 2009 Report Posted March 25, 2009 It is viscous - it doesn't run very fast B) It didn't come from anyone at MS so that's OK. It came from a certain Mr O'Brien's Facebook... Paul O'Brien is no longer a MVP!
Guest awarner (MVP) Posted March 25, 2009 Report Posted March 25, 2009 So where did the rumour come from then?
Guest Confucious Posted March 25, 2009 Report Posted March 25, 2009 Like I said - Paul's Facebook comment.
Guest Paul Posted March 25, 2009 Report Posted March 25, 2009 "The Microsoft Most Valuable Professional award is presented to individuals for their past year’s contributions to online and offline communities, which stand out from others in the communities that focus on Microsoft technologies. Your contributions were diligently evaluated over the past year against the contributions of others in the Windows Mobile community. As a result of this evaluation, you were not awarded as a Microsoft MVP for the 2009/2010 award cycle." So there you have it! P
Guest Neil5459 Posted March 25, 2009 Report Posted March 25, 2009 So there you have it! P Bl**dy hell- what do you have to do to get renewed then? B) :( Maybe need to be more of a 'Yes man' Paul !
Guest Paul Posted March 25, 2009 Report Posted March 25, 2009 Yeah, maybe there's more to it than meets the eye, who knows! P
Guest Confucious Posted March 25, 2009 Report Posted March 25, 2009 Shouldn't you now be 'Paul (MNVP)? Just because they don't value you doesn't mean we don't.
Guest miles_muso Posted March 26, 2009 Report Posted March 26, 2009 Shouldn't you now be 'Paul (MNVP)? Or, in the style of Prince, maybe Paul (FKAMVP) ??
Guest GodsGift Posted March 26, 2009 Report Posted March 26, 2009 Maybe its coz of all those firmware petitions he's signed! lol naughty MVP
Guest Paul Posted March 26, 2009 Report Posted March 26, 2009 Hehe, yeah, just Paul on it's own looks odd! Paul (exMVP) Paul (afkaMVP) Paul (nolongeraMVP) Votes? B) P
Guest magic_peanuts Posted March 27, 2009 Report Posted March 27, 2009 Wonder if they got pissed that you were using OS X as your primary OS B)
Guest awarner (MVP) Posted March 27, 2009 Report Posted March 27, 2009 Did you get renewed Ash? I've not heard so technically no news is good news?
Guest Paul Posted March 28, 2009 Report Posted March 28, 2009 Yeah, I would imagine so, ditto gears is also up for renewal at this time! P
