Thanks, Bob (and)...

Thanks for cleaning up the E*Trade IPO Alert thread.

A similar situation to the guy you just dealt with is this guy:
Member 7740933

He came onto the thread with obvious touting and was zapped and, I assume, suspended, but now he's back and trying to be a bit more subtle this time.

So, my question is, since you zap posts with references to other sites in the body of the post, what about a guy like this who does an end run and puts his ad into his signature, like: Tom@visitmywebsite.com.

The guy touts with both his alias and, like this, with his signature:

And even says he's here to advertise:

Phil...Sorry they purged all your ads. So are you getting into these discussions for real now or are you just trying to build a reputable
base and sneak in ads here and there?

A little of both.

Thanks again, Bob.

Best wishes,
