[Mat Sklansky]

First off, if it was appropriate for the bonus forum, it should have been posted there, and it would have been left to Jek to decide.

Second, the basis of whether spam is deleted is not whether it has value. Other advertisers object to what they see as a sign of preferential treatment.

I leave the day to day moderation of this forum up to Mike Haven and the other mods here, but when I receive notification, I have to take action. If these other threads you speak of appear to be spam to our other advertisers, I can assure you that I will be notified and that they will be deleted.

If similar threads are in the bonus forum, then I have no opinion. That forum is a commercial entity in itself and "spam" rules don't necessarily apply.

Sorry for the distress.
