Re: verify windows password?

Hi, David.

Gunny you are an ass.
Quit being such a
asswad.

Your vocabulary and grammar are so impressive that perhaps you can help me
identify a word or phrase I'm trying in vain to come up with. What do we
call the guy who logs into Google Groups and marks his own replies with four
stars and marks the replies of other posters in the thread with either one
or two stars (apparently to identify them as "bad answers"), but totally
ignores a helpful answer, as well as the information the questioner gave?

http://groups.google.com/group/comp.databases.ms-access/browse_thread/thread/9747e4924d9d573d/c56f1500c5177051?&hl=en#c56f1500c5177051

Your two replies you marked as so star-worthy totally ignored the following:

1.) Diane's statement that she's saving the User ID's and passwords in a
table (i.e., she's not using User-Level Security, and she never implied that
User-Level Security is one of her goals, either). It's a huge security risk
to save the Windows user names and passwords in a workgroup information file
because very cheap (and free) tools can be used to read the User ID's and
passwords, so it should never be considered as an option.

2.) Diane's statement that "My users are sufficiently concerned with the
privacy of this data to make sure that they do not leave the application
open on the desktop when they walk away," so your suggestion to "write a
routine that closes a database after a given period of inactivity to resolve
the idiot user syndrome" is moot and was ignored by Diane.

3.) Diane is not a "he."

4.) Diane never replied to any of your posts, so she never gave any
indication as to why she would have mysteriously become thrilled enough with
your suggestions to take the time to mark them with four stars, despite the
fact that they didn't address her concerns, nor provide assistance with her
goal.

5.) You didn't even mark Matthias Klaey's helpful reply with any stars,
which conceivably is the only reply Diane received that answered her
question in the way she expected it to be answered. If Diane were to mark
any replies with stars, that's the one she would have picked, although if
you look at her profile and previous posts, you'll see that "measuring other
people and being measured by other people's standards" makes her use of an
online rating system of complete strangers a non sequitur.
