Hello Moderators,

With respect to the Javaranch New Posting Guidelines, the name of the company should not appear in the post. And presently the workaround for this being used is, moderators remove the �Company name� and leave �[Company]� marker in the post, so that the visitors would not be able to see the actual company name.
But this method has a small loophole ... Due to which, people can still get the Company name, thought it has been changed to �[Company]� marker.
No hard feelings... It�s just a riddle for free time, and I know moderators can find it easily... If not, will provide the answer...

Thanks and Regards,
Dhiraj Raut

Man you must think these mods were born yesterday.

And its strange how just a few days ago you were asking for this policy to be violated by asking for some company names yourself

As this thread is about a JavaRanch policy, it belongs in the JavaRanch forum.

Thanks for your concern; we're aware of how our software works

The point of the posting guidelines is to keep those discussions out of the Saloon forums, and they have achieved that goal. Beyond that, we're not really concerned whether person A does or does not know that person B is interested in company C.
