John,

I have to agree with Matt here. Your recent posts have been increasingly
commercial. I believe it more to the point that if all the contributors
to this forum were advertising as you have been the value would be
significantly diminished.

Matt,
Please post your name and number so we can verify using the verification
tool. Even if you do have the CCIE, than it does no good by criticizing
others. The people here need help; they don't want to see this kind of
stuff, if you don't have anything helpful to say, than don't say it. Now
lets help these people. I am just going to help the people. Please take
this offline if you have further comments.
Sincerely,

Correction sir, I DO have my CCIE, and my number happens to be lower
than yours.

Matt,
As far as I know this is a list to help each other out. If I am offering
a service to help people out, I see no wrong doing, to let people know.
I have helped and contributed to this list for the past 2 years. I have
a lot of knowledge and experience, as far as the CCIE exam. I have been
though a lot of pain and suffering. I am sorry if I offended you. I am
not to offend anyone, I just would like to help people. I wish someone
would have given me advice when I started, I didn't know what to do,
actually I got some bad advice when I started. I do post many technical
posts as well, I just don't post trying to sell something. If you don't
believe me search the archives. I am sorry if that you don't got your
CCIE yet, and find no reason than to blame others, that is what I used
to do also. Now lets get back to studying!!!

John-
 
With all due respect, can you please stop promoting your class here?
Get a website and post the URL if you want to get the word out. This
list is not for advertising, it is for technical discussion. There are
quite a few excellent contributors to this list (they know who they are)
that either have their own class, or work for a company offering
classes, and they don't seem to slip it into almost every email they
send.
 
Regards,
 
Matt

Congradulations,
I am very happy for you. And I am sure they are a good class, been a
while since I've been to Rotterdam and Amsterdam, a very nice part of
the world indeed. I am very excited about my class, because you can do
my class from anywhere in the world, at a fraction of the cost of the
other training bootcamps. No traveling involved. I just had my first
CCIE student last week, I am sure more to follow. Right now I am at 100%
with my students. Please folks email me, my classes have been filling
up, I still have a few slots left for September, and I also have some
one-on-one's for August.

YES, mate.

CONGRATULATIONS.
The Training Bootcamp of Dimension Data with trainer Willy Schoots in
Holland was indeed excellent and during those two weeks, we prepared for
the CCIE labs but we also enjoyed the technologies (maybe the more
important!!!!) and motivated each other. The proof is 4 CCIEs within 2
months in a class of 7.

Enjoy your holiday, Geert.

Hello group,

Just to let you know that i passed yesterday, on my second
attempt, in Brussels also, just like Koen (who is #13730).
It has been a hard journey for me also, but i can't describe the
rush that you get when you see that "PASS" line
on the Cisco Web Site !

I am also not going to bore you with details on how to obtain
the certification.
You all know that already: it is just plain hard working, hard
studying and never giving up !!

I do however would like to thank the following people:

- First, my company Simac, who has made it possible for me to
obtain this certification.
- Second, my girlfriend Nathalie, who has always kept supporting
me, even on the hard days when i was down.
- Third, i would like to thank Willy of Dimension Data for his
excellent Bootcamp (who is also reading this list,
so: Hi !) and all of my fellow students. They really
boosted my knowledge level in those 14 days.
I couldn't have done it without them !
- And last but not least, everyone on this really, really
excellent spam-free Groupstudy list who helped me
with their insights when i was firing off my many
questions....

In a while, i will be enjoying myself on a well-deserved
vacation, and don't worry: I will be keeping an eye on
this list for anyone i can help,

Regards,
Geert Nijs.
