Is Blonde becoming spam city?

[action man]

the title of the post has a question mark, is blondepoker becoming spam city? it was supposed to be a debate, not a start of everyone to get on their high horses and make my opinions seem infantile and ludicrous. Maybe if we were better informed (within reason) of blondes finances, this wouldnt turn  into such a heated argument.
   maybe I am misreading somethings, maybe i was just trying to open the preverbial can of worms. If anyone knows me from tribbeca (theclaimer) will know that i always have a laugh and a joke with people and see the funny side of things. However i pride my self on speaking my mind.

maybe the members who agree with my original post are afraid to agree because of the stick ive been getting all afternoon!

I knew i was on a hiding to nothing when i put the post in this afternoon. i just wanted to see what reaction it would get.

Tikay in no why was i attempting to bad mouth blonde or imply any  wrongdoing, i was just asking if people think "blonde is becoming spam city" the answer seems to be a resounding nay. End of matter

Since spam is an old word with a new meaning the exact etymology and therefore definition of the word may as yet be unclear and it could take several decades before there is a final definition accepted by all as the received wisdom.

In the meantime, do we not accept that advertising and marketing are an integral, yay, welcome, part of a modern, capitalist society -  a socio-political system from which we all derive benefits. Since the large majority of us capitalists 'vote with our feet' and stay here we clearly prefer the capitalist system and the profit motive to any other system. No obvious rush from here to rural China or Cooooooooooba  (Cuba quiero bailar la salsa) so far as I can tell.

Ergo, the marketing of the site and it's multiple offerings to it's membership is to be welcomed, embraced and the people behind it should have their tummies tickled. Oh yes. We, atavists all, exist to market and sell - hence the wiggly bottoms one sees in spring.

Moreover, and back to the initial discussion over a precise definition of spam - is it possible to spam one's own site or customers. I reject the very notion as primitive and verging on the subhuman. I am sure it is possible to unsubscribe and thus, rather than a discussion regarding spam, one should instead rejoice in the fact that our fathers and forefathers worked, lived and died so that we, yes, we petty men, could exercise our democratic right to 'vote with our feet' and not simply exercise a good deal of airtime with drivel.

why should we, myself included, be better informed (within reason) about blonde's finances? Nothing to do with us unless we are shareholders, and its not a plc so the information isn't publically available unless you want to trek to Companies House and find out.

this is a very important factor for me in deciding wether or not to locate the aforementioned threads.

You never struck me as an Arse basher, Tightend.  Each to their own and all that.
