JamesKearns Stranger Registered: 08/12/07 Posts: 11 Loc: Canada New Brunswick	Original post deleted by moderator. So, regrettably, I had to expunge this message. I appreciate the fact that the poster wrote like a human being and not a spam-bot, and I appreciate that it's a freebie for our members, but it's promoting a business, and that runs afoul of the rules. However, there's nothing (hint, hint) that stops a member from using the link in James' "signature" (below) or contacting James directly to find out how to enter the free drawing. Uh, and don't be thinking that I'll be this nice if people start trying to use this little loophole to slide things by me.

Obviously, though, you're not just a spammer. Let me run this by the other mods. If I get the consensus of "thumbs down," I'll need to remove the post, but I want to say thank you for considering our members and not being a true spammer. If you were a true spammer, you'd already be banned, and you wouldn't get a polite note either. HJ Moderator _________________________ Adventures In Stoving

Just a thought. _________________________ Warning - I am not an expert on anything having to do with this forum, but that won't stop me from saying what I think. Bob
