Knowing that, I >definitely don't see anything wrong with the original posting. Ed.general is for general discussion in Edinburgh. It has existed since the mid-1980s. It is not for commercial advertising. Often there are borderline cases about what's commercial, and usually people don't bother about the occasional ad from a company in Edinburgh. But clearly Ian's ads are becoming frequent enough to annoy people. >So... to sum up, I don't see that Ian's posting is any different than >the 5 postings before his and the 5 postings after (not including 'after >#2' that's also from Ian). Huh? All the others (apart from the spam "invest $24") are local discussion, exactly what ed.general is for. His two are commercial advertising. Anyway, it's up to ed.general readers to decide what ed.general is for, and since you don't seem to be one, I don't see what it's got to do with you. -- Richard
