    Usually spam is not -illegal- or a TOS-able offense unless there is some
sort of crossposting or mass emailing that goes along with it, but to me,
putting an ad, in a post that has no on-topic substance, in a NG that has
little or nothing to do with the product, or which group is not a "for sale"
group, is Spam.

    Again, not like I really was bothered by the one post, but I just wonder
how many other people have products that they would like to advertise on
this group and how quickly that could degenerate if there isn't some
objection to each and every minor violation.
