I am not spamming at all

Yes you are.

Chatmaster,

Explain why you say that? I see everyone has a signature attached to thier username. A lot of people join forums just for that reason, posting useless comments just to have their signatures appear on the post. Are they contributing to the forum?

Please let's not drag signatures into a spamming debate. Signatures are managed on this site to deal with exactly the issue you raise. It's the content of posts, and particularly gratuitous link dropping in public areas where close attention is paid.

In this regard your first couple of posts were... pushing it some - to the point where it was discussed in the moderator's forum. I was satisfied it had settled down since.

However, the real concern is that visitors see that sort of thing and get the wrong idea as to what will be allowed, sign up and push it a little further.

For the record, it wasn't so much the give for life link - on its own it wasn't much of an issue. It was all the others "that went with the deal" that caused the stir. Ordinarily I would have done some cleaning up, but Tony started engaging you on a couple of them and I've been quietly curious as to where that angle is going to end up.

Now you can take this badly or see it as constructive criticism - either way the ball is in your court and the return will be dealt with accordingly.

Choose wisely

Hi Dave A,

My intention will never be to spam a forum ( I owned 3 forums at one stage and I know what spamming can do to it), I like to give as much info about a topic as possible and unfortunately some perceived it as spamming.

Let's leave it at that.

Cheers

And so it starts - goodbye onlinesa

[Chatmaster]

I hate it when spammers refuse to admit they spam, good for you Dave I missed the moderated posts.

[tonyflanigan]

Onlinesa. Not the first, won't be the last...

[Dave A]

On review of an appeal by onlinesa, the suspension has been lifted.

However, this thread has probably caused enough trouble for now and is closed.
