Re: Spam:****, [AMRadio] FS: NOS Transformers and More Miscellany
My comments were certainly not meant as a personal affront to you or anyone Brian. I apologize if that is the way you interpreted my remarks. It seems to me that these discussions and complaints about the conduct or posting practices of certain individuals should be taken "off-line" and privately conducted with the offending individuals. The tone of many of the responses that were directed to me personally as a result of my plea for toning down of the discussion were condescending and unnecessary. I am not a very frequent poster, but I enjoy reading items that are of common interest to the AM fraternity. I do appreciate your efforts, but I think that all of the clutter created by this and previous threads concerning sales postings and misguided responses to them has made several of us very weary, to say the least. What we have observed is "piling on" at its worst. However, I can (and should) follow my own advice and hit the delete key when needed. I will now go back to my low profile stance and continue to enjoy my hobby without unwelcomed controversy and receipt of personal injury or abashment from "friendly fire". 73, Jack, W9GT -- Original message -- From: "Radio Station W5AMI" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Hi Jack, > > I appreciate your feedback, however these rules have been put in place > for a reason, and need to be followed as they would be on any email > list.

Jack I think it is just a bit more than unwanted traffic on your computer. Each message is archived for history which is stored on a disk at the server. What I think Brian is saying that he just archives everything without editing out the replies saying "I want this or that". And I don't blame him either because that would almost make editing a full time job.

Thanks Pete! The AM Forum For Sale and Wanted forums are an excellent place for these listings. I suggested this before and surprised that more people don't use it for that purpose. There is no charge or fees to become a member of the amfone.net forums, and as Pete said, if you only want to look, you don't even have to sign up as a member. Thanks again for reminding me of this Pete... Brian PS: If anyone ever forgets the link to amfone, it is posted at the footer of every message sent to this list.
Re: Spam:****, [AMRadio] FS: NOS Transformers and More Miscellany
Brian: Your absolutely correct. I can't remember how many times you've repeated this same request on this reflector and still the same things happen. The AM Forum web site has an excellent section for sale and want items. Pictures can be posted, links can be added, and far more versatile then this constant listing, relisting, "I want that; where do I send the money", etc. This reflector should be for sharing of information, technical discussions, and not a format for selling. Check out the AM Classifieds on the AM Forum, at http://amfone.net/Amforum/index.php You don't have to be a member to review the For Sale/Trade, Wanted ads. We even post Ebay info on items of interest or amusement for the AM crowd. To be a member so you can list your items, you need to set up a profile, name, call, usename, password, etc., which if you type slow, maybe takes 15 seconds. Pete, wa2cwa
