He then said the reason you were kicked is that you were repeatedly warned not to reference other sites and chose to ignore those warnings. I happen to agree with you that solutions are solutions and no one should be parochial about who said what where. Nonetheless, Foxite has the same right as any other group to make its own rules. You chose not to abide by those rules.

Mike,
It is simply not true. Recently after I joined the site I received a message from Eric saying that while I'm thinking I'm being helpful there is no shortage of VFP expertise on the forum and the references to other sources are not welcomed. I replied I'm going to try to follow these rules and yes I did try to the best of my abilities. I didn't give a single reference to UT after that incident. Now, there were two particular cases: one with Syah (Adam on foxite) when he asked the same question about protecting a folder on both forums. I did a research on the problem and posted 4 links here on UT, though only one (Rick Strahl's solution) was the most relevant. I only posted this link on foxite, but did mention I posted more on UT.
The other case was with Luca from Italy, where I tried to help with PDF automation. Now, I just knew about a particular solution, I haven't a need to try it myself. But I posted the code with a proper attribute and I also sent a private message to him (her) here with a thread's link.
You can easily check all my messages on Foxite to see, if I indeed broke the rules. Just search by my last name in descending date order.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
