The one time I was unsure if the Spammer was a real person and don’t include a nice explanation of why I reported them, this happens. Sorry dude. What you did was against the rules. If you are going to link to stuff run by you, you have to tell us that that’s the case. And, preferably, don’t do it on your first day. Give us a chance to get to know you a bit. And if you are unsure if it’s okay, ask, like the rules say you should. We’re not crybabies. Our policies really do cut down on SPAM. ---

Let me get this straight. 1. You came to the board to answer a question and then decided to drop in a not-so-subtle hint/link to your business. That’s spamming and is not allowed here. 2. When called on your behavior you refer to people as “crybabies” and “dingbats.” I think we’ve seen enough. ---

Let’s hope hvac\_three has more on the ball. ---

Speaking of crybabies, have you seen any of his posts? Wah, wah, quit picking on me, why you so mean to me, etc, etc. Talk about your cry babies, sheesh. Pot meet Kettle, truly. Spammer, persecution complex, extremely thin skin, interesting combination. ---
