Forum Name Change

[Alan Perkins]

Hi all

As your new forum moderator, I feel it my duty to point out that what was the "Spam Reports" forum is now the "Spam and Ethics" forum, with the following brief:

Discuss what's spam & what's not. Test your new ideas on our spam experts. Report any spam that you see or tricks being used.

I hope this wider scope will allow us to discuss spam constructively...

For those unfamiliar with my views on Search Engine Spam, the following may make interesting reading:

I thought you were changing it to Spam & Ethics Forum, sponsored by www.vbmedia.co.uk?

Last time I send you money in the post! :D

Still, I trust my banners will be appended to the head of each post, as agreed?

Sorry, Maz, your CPP (cost-per-post) budget has expired - you had the 2.7 impressions your money paid for. Unfortunately I cannot provide documentary evidence as this is a dynamic forum. Doug tells me they were seen, really, but cannot detect at what time or by whom. I suggest that if you have not achieved the ROI you anticipated that's your problem but I'd be happy to take your money on the same terms again. :)
