I submit news items that don't pass muster all the time.
In other words, spam?
In Karl Bode See Profile's eyes, probably. :) But I'll keep submitting what I find interesting on the off chance he does too.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21105448 Sat, 13 Sep 2008 18:38:37 EDT Interesting http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21105126 Noah Vail : I think he made a good point, in a good venue; as long as it was limited to a brief mention.

Which it was, until you took up the mantle and made it a critique piece.

Oh no, not at all: just because it's interesting to you but not to the site's general readership (in the opinion of the editors) doesn't make it spam.

But public posting "But I submitted this first!" is in the same juvenile, attention-seeking category as "FIRST POST"

Ah, so this is about you, and not about spam?
Nope, not me. If I wasn't interested in it I wouldn't have reported it as soon as the news was announced. Now I am wondering if reporting "news" is even beneficial to readers like you. ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21103442 Sat, 13 Sep 2008 10:39:38 EDT Re: Interesting http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21103397 Steve : Ah, so this is about you, and not about spam?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21103397 Sat, 13 Sep 2008 10:31:43 EDT Re: Interesting http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21103337 TheKnossos :
