    In the T-SQL forum I'm frequented I see one particular user always self-proposing even in cases where it's not really a good answer.
    Premature optimization is the root of all evil in programming.

    It is the same answer again for any of the threads you started here lately: approach the user about it.  Point out why it is a bad practice.  You'll get no help from Microsoft, they approve of it.  Mods can't do anything about it, they just ignore it.

    Nobody is going to volunteer to get rid of your annoyances, you'll have to do this yourself.  It is a forum, post to the thread.
