I looked in here about 3 days ago and all I saw was EMCS spam.
Waste of time.
Spam is not something you just don't want to read it has to have an advertizing asspect to it and an offer to sell you in some way. Just saying.
Not really. Its actually unwanted (or unsolicited) electronic communication. It is, however, most often created for merchandising purposes, and is most often proliferated via email.

Spamming remains economically viable because advertisers have no operating costs beyond the management of their mailing lists, and it is difficult to hold senders accountable for their mass mailings. Because the barrier to entry is so low, spammers are numerous, and the volume of unsolicited mail has become very high. In the year 2011, the estimated figure for spam messages is around seven trillion. The costs, such as lost productivity and fraud, are borne by the public and by Internet service providers, which have been forced to add extra capacity to cope with the deluge. Spamming has been the subject of legislation in many jurisdictions.[1]

Is it Spam if you have the choice to click on it?
There is no such thing as Liberal Men, only Liberal Women with Penises.'
Well, I really don't have much to say on this subject. Didn't really like him, and I didn't really dislike him. Seems like he played within the rules, though.
Main thing I would say is that I never went along with a lot of folks ganging up on one person. Just don't seem right.
I have had more than a few bruises and cuts for standing with one man against many, even when I didn't particularly like him. guess I'm just stupid that way.
