I totally agree..

We have here a great problem, that involves a thing named professional ethics..

A long time, Microsoft is giving MVPs pins to people, exactly to turn them disciples of practices like these..

Hey.. and, I am not talking about all of them.. We really have great "MV" men among them !!
