WTF kind of commercial, production phase, web service returns each type of response nicely wrapped in an XML document, in a Response element, but the Images component of the service either returns raw JPEG bytes as a string when the call is successful, and an error message nicely wrapped in the old Response element when the vall fails, e.g. bad credentials. So one URL, for one method on the service, returns either a binary string, or an XML message?

It is interoperable and scalable and highly configurable.
A. we want to get rid of XML and starting using binary. Can your service do this?
B. Hell yeah.
A. What if we reverse the previous proposition?
B. Hell yeah.
A. Wow! that is awesome. Will the client applications and other consumers have any issue with it?
B. Client who? My service is working fine, right?

Why is there a sudden surge of old posts on the Q&A forum. Particularly on payment related.

The 98-year-old Mother Superior from Ireland was dying. The nuns gathered around her bed trying to make her last journey comfortable.
They gave her some warm milk to drink but she refused.
Then one of the nuns took the glass back to the kitchen. Remembering a bottle of Irish whiskey received as a gift the previous Christmas, she opened and poured a generous amount into the warm milk.
Back at Mother Superior's bed, she held the glass to her lips. Mother drank a little, then a little more and before they knew it, she had drunk the whole glass down to the last drop.
"Mother," the nuns asked with humility, "please give us some wisdom before you die."
She raised herself up in bed and with a pious look on her face said,
"Don't sell that cow”.

Never mind the truth. At least she was determined to live longer.

Amen!
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

How about here[^], if you're programming Office using C#? Chris will create a dedicated forum if the number of topical posts demands it.

From time to time we seem to hit another lowest low. I wonder how long we can keep going before we hit rock bottom, and what will happen when we do?

Typical! That is a question, but of course it's been closed - so the OP doesn't get an answer...
It's fairly obvious what the problem is: he's found an article which does what he needs, and can't get out to work. He just doesn't know that there are lots of articles, and that he needs to post that in the forum at the bottom rather than in QA.
We get a dozen or so of those a year.
But we can't tell him that, because the question is closed...
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Can you know if someone posted a comment before the question closed?
Sometimes (I know for sure) OP got comments, but these disappear after closing the question...

Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.
