If I were a Mod, that would really get on my nerves, having to delete each post an idiot made like that. There are some who join and have a link to their business and make a one word post just to advertise their company, that really chaps my rear, it is hard to keep from saying something to them and sometimes I do. I hate to open a page of posts and all there is on that whole page is some post hound posting just to advertise or run his post count up. I have never understood why it was so important for a person to have so many posts. Whew, now I got one more post count.:whistling2: Sorry for the rant there.

I might add, the same goes for rude, insulting, name-calling or dangerous posts, etc. that may be of concern to us here.
The link to the rules is all over the site, so feel free to read them if you're not sure.
For instance, SOME minor profanity is allowed, but personally, I don't like to see too much of it as we consider this to be a fun, friendly family-oriented forum. Words like **** and **** are automatically censored as you can see. But damn, if you can't cuss a LITTLE, well, ...you know.
Spam is unpaid advertising----we get a lot of sneak thieves here that want to use this forum to sell products without having to pay for the privilege--
The postings are confusing and rude to our members.
This would be a good thread for a sticky Mike. Over on the Craft Forum, every once in a while I get a PM from someone telling me about a spam because they don't know about the red button.
My sister used to make something called screpples that she fried and put pancake syrup on. It was very similar to Spam, but it was made with pork roast and beef roast. Yummy!
I fished in Canada a few times and our guide would save the "emergency" Spam for himself while we had to eat walleye fillets for a shore lunch. Spam is almost the "national" food of Hawaii.
:laughing: No. I was at Meijers doing some grocery shopping and there was some of it stacked on the endcap shelves.
There wasn't anyone around, so I took the camera out of my purse and snapped a picture.
Just as I pushed the button a woman walked around the corner and saw me.
She looked at me like she'd never seen anyone taking a picture of the Spam display before.
I told her to 'take a picture, it'll last longer!'. :laughing: I didn't really say that to her.
