Looking beyond that, his posts may be "Spammy", but they're also usually business related...something sorely lacking on GFY. He started a thread that ended up with some good information in it from other posters. If I don't like someone or something they do regularly, I'll look past their posts in the hopes that maybe there's something else useful inside that thread. Threads like this are a hell of a lot more useful than the daily "Would you hit it" threads. Take it for what it's worth.

We've all made posts where our chosen words were perhaps not the best. Thankfully, I can say I was drunk whenever I made mine
I don't care if he spams. I am the last one to care. I have things to do other than care about the context of his threads. If I cared, I would complain. Weg, although not on Raffi's list, does advertise here. Our complaints are taken serious.

His post was timely as it closely followed our Purecash announcement. It created a thread with misinformation, something we (I) strive not to allow to happen. Sure, it is "ok" to start a thread, but sometimes paying attention to the surrounding environment benefits everyone.

If a program makes a change on Monday, you go make a thread about the context of it on Tuesday without naming the company, it is logical to assume what will unfold.
