Um. I have a web browser. I can get to Google Groups. You don't need to perpetuate this thread by posting _complete copies_ of both spam messages.

I quoted the messages so that you could see for yourself.

And as I pointed out, you need not have done that, since I had already seen all of the messages in the thread, via Google Groups. Even if you had wanted to help me find the messages, the right way to do it would have been to post links to the Google Groups copies, rather than copying the entire spam messages back to this newsgroup.

I find that part of this whole thing very ironic, since the whole thread at this point is about the question of whether one should quote spam. So what did you do? You quoted TWO spam messages, in the process of arguing whatever point it is you're trying to make.

I'm sorry that you are not interrested in facts, only opinions.

I am interested in the facts. However, there's not any disagreement on the facts. We agree on what messages were posted. There's only disagreement on the opinions related to those facts.

I'm sorry that you don't see the need to avoid helping spammers sell their wares. It's my personal opinion that quoting off-topic advertisements is a really, REALLY bad idea.

You seem to disagree, and I suppose that's that. I'm not interested in a huge argument about the issue, and you seem more interested in inventing a disagreement about "the facts" than in listening to the identical opinion stated here by two newsgroup regulars, and a third person by proxy. We all agree that you should not have quoted the spam but, since that's clearly a subjective issue, there are no "facts" that could be used to persuade you.

If you will not be persuaded by the concepts of being a good community neighbor, there is nothing left to do but just drop the thread.
