If you had taken the time to read the charter or FAQ for this group,
you would have noticed the following: "This group is NOT appropriate for For Sale or Wanted To Buy postings, those being handled nicely in rec.arts.books.marketplace and (to a lesser extent) in rec.collecting. Nor would it include discussion of content, that being reserved for rec.arts.books." |

Why are you telling ME this and not the other people in the group that have advertised a book for sale or indeed a collection of books in the past couple of weeks? If you are going to be annoying, at least be consistent. Matalog. |

Bob's response was public likely because I had posted the FAQ and Charter here not 24 hours earlier, and apparently you either didn't see them or ignored them. Sorry if being wrong annoys you, but the fact remains that you were WRONG to post a "for sale" message here. |

If you are going to be annoying, at least be consistent. How about because when a driver gets a speeding ticket it's no less valid just because the cops don't go after every speeder? How about because all those others you complain about *have* been tagged, albeit outside the group? How about because you were stupid enough to post your WTB immediately after two posts pointing to the group's charter & FAQ? How about because you've been reading this group for at least 10 months and so should know better anyway? -- Jon Meyers (To reply, lose your way) |

Matalog whined:
Why are you telling ME this and not the other people in the group that have advertised a book for sale or indeed a collection of books in the past couple of weeks? If you are going to be annoying, at least be consistent. Because of your blatant disregard of the FAQ AND Charter which Bud Webster had posted the day before your spam. So stop your whining and admit that you were wrong! |

I do realise that it posting ads is not accepted so therefore I would be
wrong to do so. Apart from that, all I was complaining about was bob telling me and not others, but I now realise that was because of the recently posted charter and FAQ which I hadn't read.

That being said, stick around and help build the group back up. |
