Crap spam. Most people wouldn't mind the occassional post advertising your business in newsgroups. At least be up front about it, don't try to hide it. A post once a month letting readers know where to get hold of you would probably be OK. >>Hey Everybody, >> >>I was just surfing around trying to find fishing sites, and I came across >>this one: <snip>> >>There's tons of stuf inside of it, all related to sport fishing and outdoor >>recreation!

No problem, nice to see someone taking responsibility for their own actions - that is indeed rare nowadays. As I mentioned earlier, commercial posts are not usually welcome in NG's, but the occasional note with nothing hiding is generally acceptable. Check your ISP's web page for something called nettiquette - lots of good info there. No hard feelings, good thing you didn't apologize, then claim that you were the one to originally introduce Canadians to the 'net :-) -----Original Message----- From: Ian Wills <mixmaster@softhome.net> Newsgroups: japan.fishing,alt.fishing,can.rec.fishing,rec.outdoors.fishing,rec.outdoors. fishing.saltwater,tw.bbs.sports.fishing,uk.rec.fishing.sea Date: January 5, 1999 8:46 PM Subject: Re: Check out this cool site I found! >Sorry for the SPAM, I was just trying to promote my Dad's site.

It will make the rest of your life much easier. I doubt anyone here in news:can.rec.fishing will have any trouble getting over this, given that you are so young and that you have offered a sincere apology. So, how's the fishing up your way?

Ian, I hope you now understand that you should be honest in your posts. Most news groups allow you to promote your business once or twice a month. Nobody likes spam. Thanks for the apology. Bruce Ian Wills wrote: > sorry for the SPAM, I was just trying to promote my Dad's Site

Ian Apology duly noted and as such your dad's enterprise will be better for it. Really nice to see the forthright honesty. You do you father proud by making these amends. I gotta get back into Conuma Inlet. Cheers Steve Ian Wills wrote: > sorry for the SPAM, I was just trying to promote my Dad's Site
