For sale posts that are on topic and marked FS are not spamming. I have
been on the usenet groups since 1996. Pick on the porn mongers, not people
who are on topic.

It has been my observation that people who complain about for sale postings are mostly people who couldn't by a wingnut if they were
sellin' em for a nickle. I for one like to know when things are for sale. I can't check everything every day. I own about 140 cars and I
am always looking for more. When you see one marked FOR SALE, just skip it and let the adults read what they want.

Just what can you do with 140 cars? Drive them twice a year, or maybe
you like to set out on the front porch at night and listen to them
rust? I must be jealous...

About what your opinion is worth, .02. The poster in question is a
commercial seller who is constantly spamming this group. You want to know
when something's for sale go to Ebay and look for yourself. Wingnut

I must have missed where it says in the group name
alt.a.sholes.selling.crap. You asked and were told before that your spam
was un-welcome. There is a big difference between a guy selling his project
car to a commercial spammer like yourself.

Unless it's against the charter or not a 'for sale' group. This is usually
covered under your IPS's AUP.
And if we're going to be bragging about length of time on the net....
I was on usenet in 1988 using my original CFN ID... :)

Actual text from the auction:
"Will sell to Worldwide only."
WTF does that mean? Fed-Ex shipping to Mars and Venus are not an option??
Here's another: "...little to no apparent rust"

..."Overall this car isn't rusty at all."

DAMN! I'd hate to see what he considers a "rusty" car.
Is he trying to out-do "Baghdad Bob"?
