If your commercial advertisement had been in a *sig*, attached to a post where you were PARTICIPATING in the group,

*that* would have been acceptable. Drive-by spam is NOT acceptable.

The charter for this group:

I dont see it as spam - it fits this segment of your reference to the charter:

Note the stars which reference locations on obtaining servicing info and parts.

sci.electronics.repair is an unmoderated group for the discussion of repairing electronic equipment. Topics to include: Requests for assistance, **Where to obtain servicing information and parts **, Techniques for diagnosis and repair, and Annecdotes about success, failures and problems with equipment manufacturers."

It also says its an unmoderated list - but you are attempting to moderate it. If you can contact google, and participate in the process of editing that description so that its perfectly applicable to your interpretation, I will yield in defeat.

Also, if you read the FAQ and the message on the homepage of the site I referenced , you will see its not purely a commercial site. Free participation is offered.

Using your logic, I guess you steal when there's no guards.

Of course not. Spammers have defective brains that don't allow them to see THEIR spam as a problem.

You are _a natural_ for the financial services industry.

**If EXACTLY what I'm doing isn't EXPLICITLY spelled out as wrong, it can't possibly be wrong.** Again, spammers have defective brains that don't allow them to put themselves in the shoes of others and see what irritating jerks they are.

Here's what Google has to say about your behavior:

Here are my suggestions about broadening your enlightenment:

1) Make an efffort to learn what USENET is. As you have been told, this is NOT "Google Groups". It was also mentioned that the various Web-to-USENET portals are considered the armpit of USENET, as they allow shady entrepreneurs like you to post to it while remaining completely clueless.

The FAQ says to put *commercial* content in *commercial* groups. Hint: Groups whose names don't contain

*ads* *forsale* *marketplace* or *biz * are **DISCUSSION** groups and DON'T want your ads. (People who aren't completely clueless know this without having it spelled out in individual FAQs.) Michael Black covered it nicely here:

-*

Immaterial. Posts that are 100% advertisement are SPAM.

2) Learn what "participate" means. 2a) Conversely, try to imagine what **drive-by spammer** means. 3) Learn what "interloper" means.

4) Learn what a *sig* is.

and learn how those are implemented on USENET .

5) Don't POST to groups that you haven't bothered to READ.

In addition:

7) Don't TOP-post. Any *previous* text that isn't important enough to appear *above* your text should be removed--but do leave enough for *context*. Again: Google is a distortion of USENET reality and best practices.

In summary: Make an effort to get a clue and do stop thinking the world revolves around YOU.
