I think a lesson can be learned from advertising commercial products on free-for-all mailing lists... Apart from being poor taste, it's the worst possible kind of publicity, especially when not followed by an apology but rather a suggestion "to block mails from your inbox". Whether the product is good or not is a secondary issue. I will follow that suggestion, though - I've just added "WorldShow3D" to my blacklist...
I think the J3D forum is great - I've received invaluable advice on several occasions from people who know the platform inside out. Let's keep it that way and let's keep it clean. I like the fact that I don't have to filter through commercials in order to get to the info I'm looking for. Thumbs up!
