You are obviously not aware that the "forum" you are posting in leaches most
of it's posts from the Microsoft News Server in order to make it look far
busier than it is.

You will get a far better experience if you use a newsreader and subscribe
to these groups directly, rather than through the leaching site your using.

If you must stay with your leaching forum then please follow Usenet custom
by quoting
the post you are replying to, and replying to the thread.

Also I am seeing that they probably cannot see the answers posted here on the MS
servers. There is an explosion of these posts and they are all over in the 60+
newsgroups that I participate in

As egghead leaches from here, and replies should show up on the egghead
forum I would assume.

I would assume.

I wonder. The egghead thing looks to me to be pretty screwed up. I
would assume differently: that even if it shows up there's no visible
(or at least useful) relationship to the rest of the thread. Lots of
forums seem to like to list the posts within a thread in chronological
order with no sub-threading.

Maybe Microsoft will start censoring them :)
