Actually it says "
Spamming. If you only signed up to shill your product/band/website/etc., your post will be deleted and your username and IP address will be permanently banned."
Spam is defined as - the use of electronic messaging systems (including most broadcast media, digital delivery systems) to send unsolicited bulk messages indiscriminately.
Since I specifically posted (and continue to interact) this isn't spam. Also, I did not join up "ONLY" to "shill" (which is a sychophantic and positive only interaction on behalf of a product) etc.
Had any of those been my goal, it would have been posted and I'd have moved on, clearly demonstrating I pass that litmus test.
HOWEVER, interestingly enough in the FAQs are these ways to get banned:
- 1. Do not take anything personally
- 2. Do not start internet fights
- 3. Do not hijack threads
Practice what you preach?
