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and their content....and I thought it was funny that someone would do that, so I posted his spam in the thread where I originally made the comment about the original posters content being nice and me possibly wanting to buy it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

polish_aristocrat · 08-25-2005, 03:03 PM

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

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.

reynold · 08-25-2005, 07:42 PM

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

tony286 · 08-25-2005, 07:45 PM

Its trying to get business , like the salesman cold calling businesses. We are too quick to label things spam I think.

BigCashCrew Dude · 08-25-2005, 07:47 PM

it is not spam dude, it is getting business

but there is nothing wrong with you posting the email here, i thnk it is funny actually

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

Loch · 08-25-2005, 07:58 PM

in fact just now i see you run www.ecstasyglass.com ?
actually i might be interested in some of that for future productions LOL

wow, should I become a monk and reflect on my way of life as a whole too?

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
