You have put your ebay listing on every new thread you've posted so far. I think that fits this definition. And if not, it fits this definition:

an·noy (-noi) Pronunciation Key
v. an·noyed, an·noy·ing, an·noys
v. tr.
To cause slight irritation to (another) by troublesome, often repeated acts.
To harass or disturb by repeated attacks.

Dude, you're spamming. "Who has the right to carry canes (in every forum) BUY MY CANES( In every forum)"

Next ask if I want a sidekick, those are selling like hotcakes in the Alpha Delta Phi forum.

If you're not feeling my posts, then don't read them and keep it moving. I didn't randomly post my ad all over the place. They were tagged along with my threads/posts. There in like 3-4 places.

I guess you also complain when you google something and see sponsers on the right...or while drivign down the road and seeing billboards...or JayZ talking about Rocawear in his songs... ya'll are clowns...

If you would like to send some $$ John's way, he'd probably put you a nice big ad at the top of GC. You're not Sponsoring GC, or paying for a billboard, or wine & dineing John for him to promote your product. Nice try though.

Good point, froggy, but you forget something- neither are you (unless you're involved with John in ways I'm not aware)...it's always better to quote when someone has already said it best-

I should be a moderator for every thread, post, and forum....but i'm not....and it pisses me off.
I am everything you wish you could be in a Greekchat poster

I am a Greekchat All-Star

a) he's not exactly the most well liked guy around here either
and
b) you're a noob. When you've proven yourself to be more than just a spammer, maybe you'll have some footing.. but you haven't and you don't.

....being a Southern white, conservative, Bush supporting, upper class male who hunts is pretty much the polar opposite of probobly 98% of Greekchat.....so yeah, i'm sure most people on here don't like me.....Do I care? No.

.......continue taking Greekchat to seriously. Perhaps you and AlphaFrog will one day rule the internet Greekchat universe.

John's done ads before.

It didn't work.

And I'm glad that ads are no longer there. It was an eyesore.

I'm very glad there aren't ads. Especially on my parents computer where I can't block them.

/Having Google text ads might not be as bad

Thank you!

I was beginning to think that I was crazy for thinking that there once used to be Greek101/GreekGear ads on here.

Yes, John did do some ads, but they did not seem to work out because people complained so he dropped them.

John is paying for this site on his own!

Leave Him the hell alone and let Him do what He do so well!

It is free and be very happy that it is!

You are posting advertisements and you don't get why that is spam?

PhrozenGod01 called you for what you are as well.

Oh, and you act like creating a thread makes it better... it makes it worse.

Lol. I was just saying spam is delicious. I forgot to open up the link. I did now. Whatever.

@VNupe3,
Your post in this thread wasn't the worst or anything like that, but plugs and links to ebay type sites will raise the ire of many on here. I would advise you to hold off on posting links unless it is absolutely necessary to the conversation or someone asks where to get a cane without snatching up a scroller.
