Re: "There has been sooooo much spam lately..."
You must not have email or, ever frequent stock boards;
you will see spam until your eyes glaze over.
I read nearly every post of almost all threads here,
(obsessive), and the "spam", self promo ads and
pump games that appear here, can be counted on
my hands.
The Mods, unpaid and volunteering with
jobs and other lives, are not the local sheriff.
They do an excellent job, imo and most self-serving
pumps are noted and tossed
efficiently.
Ya'gotta chill!
