    EricStarker Hi,

    I suggest rewarding for marking (the best answer,) It should be the responsibility of the author, I see a lot of posts without marking despite valuable answers-> given to the author of the post.

    However, the post does not have the best answer marked - it is disregard and disrespect for selfless help.

I have actually been in Microsoft forums since 2007, but not specifically this one. I have over 40 000 posts all together and I have have been an MVP for 6 years, among other things because I have been provided answers in tech forums. I am providing my opinion here and trying to ridicule me by the number of posts , give me a break. A community is for sharing information and self centric posts like "why did I lose my super duper contributor rank" should be avoided. And congrats on beforehand if you reply back to me, that will be your reply number 4050-ish something.

MTC is an open forum - not all of them represent a high technical level, but they should be encouraged to participate - I still think that downgrading is a big image problem for an MTC Member, and it should be properly explained by the Manager.

I was removing my accounts from the Microsoft space - as soon as I saw unfair treatment in the public space - I think you understand that?

    I am simply against any kind of gamification of forums, because too much focus is being put on rank and pecking order, like what you tried to do to me. Like "soon I am a Gold Contributor, only 50 posts left. I will try to reach that before the weekend". The loser here is the overall forum quality. I would love to have you or anyone else explaining to me why I get the "UNSUPPORTED_PROCESSOR" error, but I couldn't care less about your contributor rank issue.
