Stop posting this stuff on the board...every time you post it...I will delete it. This is not an appropriate message to a forum on Audi cars. Period.

Steve, you have people working for you moderating 24/7 when you're not yourself? Curious.

Default You have no idea how many I have already deleted....

Sorry to be harsh...but this is starting to really irk me.

You know the person knows that they are not supposed to
post those type of spam posts...maybe I should email the
webmaster at Buy.com and tell them a probable employee
of theirs is spamming online forums.

Can you ban his e-mail addy or IP? (if you can, do that to MarkS too)

Default FYI steve ...

It's not an employee of Buy.com. No offense, but their mkt force has better things to be doing than posting a spam in a niche board hoping for a couple clicks. ;-)

The link in question is from an affiliate program through LinkShare. (see: www.linkshare.com).

If you want to stop stuff like that and minimize your work, there are some ways. Email me privately at and I'll be glad to help (I don't like posting anti-spam tips publicly).
