    Hey - welcome !!! Yeah, CP was not my first dev site, but when I found it, I abandoned all others. I have dipped my toes in the water elsewhere, and you're right. This is the only site I've found that builds *community*. I was talking with Nish ( another regular, I work for CP now and am in Toronto right now ), and we were talking about regulars we don't see around anymore. No other site I've been on would create that sort of conversation.

    That pretty much summed up my experiece just reading what you all have been talking about in the lounge for the past couple of months This community is amazing. Hopefully by hanging out with you guys I may even find a way to land my first coding gig, and have the support of a huge pool of the most awesome devs around to help me when I get stuck. Zach

      So you're a student at this point ? Where are you ?

      Yeah, I taught myself C++, and got my first job after 4 months of starting ( which was too soon ). I worked at home at first, and found the Visual C++ forum to be a lifeline as I learned the vagaries of MFC on the job.

        Thanks to you, I have found a place where I feel comfortable (even though this is my first post) I've been reading your articles and posts since day 1 and I am amazed. Of all the boards and forums I have found this is the only one where I see camaraderie. I've picked up tips and tricks from everything here. Hopefully now I will have the nerve to speak up in discussions and gain a good network of devs to help me in my quest to becoming a dev. I know I'll probably get bashed on this sappy little post but hey...you needed to know that an outsider has seen hope in a little place called CodeProject um...yeah...i'm done being sappy. :-D :-O Enjoy Zach

          Sounds like your weekend was like mine. Spent most of it at Praters Mill Country Fair. It's a local event that happens twice a year where a lot of local venders bring there products. Got to take my 4 month old daughter to it where she seemed to have a blast with all her gooing.

                      This is blatant spam. I've asked you repeatedly to respect this site and the community but you choose not to. Please participate in a respectful manner or I'll be forced to ban you.

                                  With the veracity with which you spoke out against people posting off-topic replies to specific questions on these forums I'm surprised you even have to ask. Opinions are one thing. Actively directing someone to your website to view your product apropos to nothing is completely different.

                                        He means that you quoted it. Obviously, you didn't do that with the intention of 'reproducing' it, but that's what he means.
