I've been working on a project for a while now with this guy that I met through a friend and I'm beginning to think of just pulling the plug on it and scratching it off as a lesson learned. The problem is he has NO clue how anything internet related works what so ever.

I told him this is spamming and is not allowed then had a 20 minute argument with him about it and still does not understand how that is spamming
