Yes you can.

Don't but the snake oil that tube dealers sell to make an extra buck.

Look, If you guys think I am out of line I will not bring it up again.
OK?

Sorry but I don't get your point.

If you think I am all wet say so. I'm not easilly offended.

We can agree to disagree.

Originally posted by Phil O'Keefe If we allow all of you to do spam threads, two things happen. We wind up with a board full of spam threads (and start getting complaints - most of them from respected forum regulars who I shall not name) and the REAL spammers - you kow, the nOObs who register and start spamming, corporate spammers etc. try to throw it back in our face - "well hey dood, I read the rulez, and it does say no spam, but uh, why are you letting everyone else do it?" But other than that, please just use the dedicated thread and don't give me a lot of grief over it, okay?

I've been a member for a few years and I've never seen "a board full of spam threads". Where do you get this from? If a so called "well respected forum regular" is complaining why do they click on the well indicated Spam Thread. This just does not make sense.


If I see a thread that has a subject matter of
"OT: Spam" I just don't click on it.

Corporate Spam is something else but a guy wanting to unload a piece of gear is way OK.

Why such the heavy hand all of a sudden?

All of the things that make this forum cool is slowly evaporating.

The only things that I think should be deleted are:
1. Hate speach. Racism not "I hate Metal Music"
2. Threats of violence.
3. Porno. I'm willing to agree to the girly threads.
4. Libel. Acusing others of criminal behaviour. Mr X is a child raper. Not MR. X is an asshole.

The effort to make this forum anemic is underway or.....

The new owners are so afraid of a lawsuit that they need to remove anything that a puritan may be offended by.

I am offended by censorship. Does that count?
