Oh Mr. Anglerboy! How should this be classified within your four rules of
spam/not-spam?

Yeah, I know. Spam is one of those things that fit into the "I know it when I
see it" categories. AFAIC, i saw it in this post, but it fits none of
Anglerboy's criteria:
---------------
1. Spam is an unwanted solicitation to buy something. I did not see that
the original poster asked anyone to BUY anything. Spam is NOT just anything
posted that one doesn't like or happens to disagree with.

2. When a brother of the angle asks for a little advice or help, I think it
should be given in the nature in which it was asked. Intimidation and
name-calling are off topic.

3. Civil discourse is sadly lacking in our society. It is possible to
disagree with someone without resorting to profanity and name-calling.
Those are the weapons of bullies, and surely we have more than enough of
those. Perhaps there is a newsgroup called alt.shrill.cuss.bully.infantile,
for those who insist on taking that tack. We are here to discuss fly
fishing. I think it takes more maturity to exercise restraint and remain
silent, than to twist an innocent post into something it isn't.

4. [HWMNBN], you don't deserve to be flamed. Your site looks very
professional, but the products are a bit sparse (understandably, for a new
business) in a few departments. Good luck to you in your venture, it is
obviously a labor of love.

Cordially yours,
Anglerboy

So, is the original post in this thread spam or not? By the above rules, no. By
the "four or fewer lines in the signature line" test, no. Could it be considered
on-topic, probably. But it sure smells like spam to me.

Did you even read these? I take it that you did not because your
questions would have been answered.

Why, yes I did, thank you.

By who? Walt, rw, and Willi? So *THAT'S* the criteria you use. Hmmmm, I thought
those were just their opinions, but that's just my opinion.

Not even close. Poorly designed stuff at average prices. Campmor can
easily beat your stuff on price and quality.


g.c.

Who knows he shouldn't go to spammer's websites but couldn't resist.
