<<In other words, do you take a different attitude to spam from an openly confessed employee of the company s/he promotes, than you do to spam from a source that seeks to conceal his/her connection?>> An openly confessed anonymous employee who spams his own company scars the hell out of me! He has about as much credibility as the current occupant of the White House. Cisco

jbe I define spamming as a person that cuts and pastes the same message on more then 3 message boards on a short period of time. The message usually contains a self serving message such as stock promoting, posting a link to their own web page i.e. promoting it, posting chain letter styled messages..... Log on here, spamlink.com for some free stock shares and use my email address as a reference. None of this matters whether the poster is a company owner, regular type SI poster or someone who sneaked out of the yahoo forum on a trial membership to SI. Bobs tells me 14 days is a trial period and I notice many of these types.......they come here on Sundays usually. SI allows some exceptions to the web link postings so it is always a judgment call on their part. This is their forum so they have the right to make such calls. Vendit
