I would have replied sooner, but was out. It's now 3am, so don't expect a big debate. I could give you more answers than I'm about to, but I'm rarely forthcoming when it's of no profit.

Am I insane? No.

Am I in the business? Yes.

Will this webmaster's actions (and those like him) kill the business? No.

You will never see the business die. It is regulated by an invisible hand. The business will adapt, change, but not die.

I could care less about this spammer because I earn more than him. And, when he learns how I earn more than him, he will cease to be a spammer. In the meantime he earns, I earn, and we co-exist. Do I care about the industry as a whole? Of course not. I care about number one. Remember, it doesn't matter if I care, the invisible hand cares more than enough.

On a final note : Webaster's with true intelligence, talent, and ingenuity will prosper due to the actions of these SE spammers (which, in turn, helps that invisible hand).
