Guess we could FAX ol' Russ a copy of accesswave's AUP about
spammin'.....(c;
Then, again, we could email his message if he
spams the newsgroup again.....
This isn't your free ad space, you know.....
I find political discussions in this group that just go on and on and on far
less desirable than an occasional product anouncement that is very on-topic.
I have done this too and nobody has complained about this. Many newgroup
charters specifically allow short infrequent commercial postings.
And I think that Accesswave will hardly consider one or two newgroup posting
as spam. In my opinion, spam is mass-mailing to thousands or millions of
e-mail recepients.
Besides, the post was very clearly marked as 'commercial post', so anyone on
expensive bandwidth had the opportunity not to spend his expensive bandwidth
on this message.
