>> Until that trust is violated or proven otherwise, I choose to trust the MS Reps who told me what the criteria was in the revised MVP program when I was nominated.<<
Hard to rebut that! < g >
How were you nominated, by the way?
>>I also see the evidence of long time MVPs dropped because of the revised criteria.<<
Yes, in the newly published list I can see that certain older MVP's are gone...
It's a shame this has become personal. A rigorous process is not hurt by being challenged, it is strengthened. If you are correct that revised criteria are now being applied uniformly, that's good for you as well because it mekes the award mean something "this year".

"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
