    When someone spams you for services from GFY, it is considered unethical...

    When someone spams you for services from GFY, it is considered unethical if you post the email on GFY?

    someone read a post I made about some content being nice and decided to spam me with his business and their content....and I thought it was funny that someone would do that, so I posted his spam in the thread where I originally made the comment about the original posters content being nice and me possibly wanting to buy it

    was this bad judgement on my part to post this dudes spam publicly? he claims that it was not cool to post a private business email, but the way I see I was doing no business with him, so there is no possible was that is was a private business email

    If it was someone I knew and someone that I had already DONE business with in the past, i would never do that......

    It was unsolicited. You didn't ask for it. I say you did nothing wrong.

    Spend you some brain.

      is it really worth all the debate?

      someone spams you, tell him you're not interested and move on, unless he acts like a retard

      just my
      I don't use ICQ anymore.

          You side you liked it and you said you might want to buy it. Shit I would have contacted you too!

          If anything it was a targeted lead.

            I don't see any problem with that. As what the first reply said, you did not ask for it.

                  This completely depends on how and why he did this!
                  See if i had sent you an email becourse i thought your business model looked interesting and thought i would be able to start a business relationship with you and you took that as spam i would laugh my ass off as cleerly you have no idea about running a business and would be no potential client of mine.

                  Do you REALLY think supliers sit back and wait for the golden phone call?
                  NO, we look up our clients either thru marketing or research....now GFY is a very poor research place for serious business as most bigger companies wont even post here they just lurke (hi there pssss lol).

                  A targeted email has nothing to do with spam

                  The guy emailing you might have been an ASS or indeed have sent you random spam i have no clue.....
                  However if you recived a business opertunaty and threw it on a message board i would say you are WAY off and need to rethink why your in this business....
                  1. to please board whores?
                  2. move on and conduct your business in private

                      LOL...dude, i am in the biz (among others) to make money, and me posting an email on a forum has NO relevance to why or what I do in this biz....and I really think you are thinking about it too much.....WAY more than I did at least

                      and I apologize to everyone for calling it SPAM....just a word off the top of my head....but the question was if it was wrong to post it here, which i don't care anymore to be honest...LOL...this was 5 hours ago

                                  I agree, but it also wouldn't bother me if you posted it...unless I had some pricing info or something in there that I might not want others to see

                                            IF you have models you havent released yet i would like to see them, that is if you can sell them.
                                            and oh yeah, if you can think of something that would be cool for a new design, let us know and we can make some custome stuff for you..if you create a new toy for us, we will give you one of them for free ;)
