Gee... and yee 'who has a real email address'... what is your point
exactly? And for your other email... this is Tania, not Paula. It's a
wonderful store, been a boat owner/sailer for a very long time.


Tania, in case you did not know it is not polite to post spam of any sort on
a newsgroup (NG) unless the NG is a buy/sell/trade NG . That is why you are
getting the push back.

I hope your friend's store is a great success but please do not advertise
anymore here or other NG's.

Thanks.

I'm sorry, didn't realize passing on useful information was spam. And I
might have posted this info to an inappropriate NG.

Apology accepted. Now, I apologize for calling you stupid.

Let's see if I understand the logic here.

Making a post to rec.boats supporting a friend's store which sells
recycled merchandize that is probably of some interest to folks
involved in boating is bad.

Making a post calling Harry a boil sucking no talent liberal union
hack during off topic political discussions which have no inherent
value to anybody other than those who are on the side of the true
believers is ok.

Do you see the problems inherent in those two statements or am I
missing something important?

All the best,

Tom

Nope.

Tom, look at it anyway you want but spam is spam. End of story.

And Krause....well Harry is....umm.....Harry. And he deserves everything
thrown his way....in fact he invites it. He certainly throws enough *our*
way, including internet stalking. I have been a first hand victim of that,
as has my wife (and family). Didn't he just stalk your internet home page?
What was the purpose of that Tom?

So I fail to see the correlation unless you are a *closet* Krause supporter.
:-)

I guess I should start closing my posts with "All the best" and they will be
OK. (insert confused grin)

No, spam is off topic crap that infests the newsgroup on a daily basis
to the tune of hundreds of posts weekly that have no relevance to
anything nautical or are even remotely interesting. And I am guilty
of that myself although not to the extent of some and my on topic
contributions in terms of number of posts certainly outweigh the off
topic contributions.

A post about a nautical consignment shop is not spam. It was
informative to me as a contributing member of this august body known
as rec.boats.

And while I'm on the subject, can you show me the rec.boats charter or
FAQ that specifically states that posts relating to the sale of
nautical merchandize in an informative manner isn't allowed?

If not, then your complaint has no standing in fact. If so, then I
will admit error and move on.

Later,

Tom
