Really?

Here's a def from webopedia...first one I clicked on from google:

Electronic junk mail or junk newsgroup postings. Some people define spam
even more generally as any unsolicited e-mail. However, if a long-lost
brother finds your e-mail address and sends you a message, this could hardly
be called spam, even though it's unsolicited. Real spam is generally e-mail
advertising for some product sent to a mailing list or newsgroup.

Guess you are in the "some people" category.

Since your posts are more OT than his are, yours are no less SPAM than his.

All you needed to do was post a link to the group's charter...at least his
post did point to some useful free info that I used last weekend to wade
fish in Galveston.

What is it with these kiddo NG Police? More than 15 years in NGs & BBSes and
all these kids think they have a right to sarcastically jump me for TOFU? Or
yellowchaser for spam? Not the US Congress definition for spam...just "some
people"

And no one ever bothers to mention the group's charter!

Spam implies fiscal renumeration

Nope. You just don't know what spam is.
