    Spam Etiquette

    Guess this really belongs on the feedback forum, but considering that other thread, this seems like a more useful place. The topic of spam came up on another bbs and was settled quickly and peacefully. A company actually hyped their new product in the title of the thread. Here's what ensued...

I then cut and paste where it's reused. Do you use Fruity Loops...
