The post spam and run crowd is why a lot of lists have moderated posting for new members for the first few posts (not that I'm recommending it here...). I hadn't been on the dotcom list for very long, but hadn't noticed very much of it - except the one post for the ebay albums from the eer music guy which annoyed some folks (he's on just about every list/forum I'm on - he does seem to contribute more on a few other lists...) - from the reaction it seems he only spammed the dotcom list. Speaking of - I have a new cd! Nah - just kidding although I did have a track pop up on a comp over the summmer... :-) John K-N > > Hey guys... > > I'm all for this group, and it's posting rules... not getting > personal, etc. One thing that irratated me on the other group was > when someone would join...
