The thing that annoyed me was more that someone with a vested interest in selling a product is using BCF's general chat section to advertise their warez.
Its irrelevant if it is technically defined as spam or not.
The person is using BCF as free advertising, will they donate 10% of the profits from sales generated here to korn for increased bandiwidth? i doubt it... ____________________ [Current Bikes - GSXR-750 K5 & C90-97 ] [Previous Bikes: Runner 125, YBR 125, GS500, Bandit 600, Hornet 600, ZX6R-99, C90-99, R1-99, XT600E-04, GSXR-750 K4, CRF250L '16] |

This is Spam, wrong section, post entirely to do with selling an item by a commercial operation, not an individual.
Hardly ever see posts from this user on other topics either.
Don't understand why you would necessarily want to be made aware of this anyway. Personally, I would have thought that buying leathers is an fairly irregular occurnace, and would need a lot of research, which would involve checking at HG for offers anyway.
Perhaps people do drop 150squid on impulse, but I know I don't. |

What I seem to be getting from this thread is because the guy works for HG it is spam when he tells us. However if I was to go to HG and find out the EXACT SAME information it is not spam?
All I can say is cheers, if I had the cash I'd buy a set, however my house mate has just bought a bike and needs gear so I will show him this. ____________________ Past: 55 Sym Jet, 91 ZZR250, 03 NSR125R. Present: 97 ER-5.

Question is where do we draw the line in that Louise of erm ZX6R fame works for HG and she tells us of the bargains HG has in her store...
I suppose that Louise has been a BCF contributer for ages and this new user is erm new.. ____________________ Spain 2008France 2007Big one 2009 We all die.

Personally, I think if it was a BCF exclusive, then fine, but it's not, it's just general advertising, which is spam.  ____________________ TheShaggyDA: I've got 3 or 4 pairs that predate my wife, so at least 11.5 years old. |

Yea i was going to mention that too, but then like you i realised she actually contributes to the forum, rather than registering with the sole purpose to promote HG...
ncrn: yes, if you were to go into HG see leathers for 150 and then come back here saying 'guys theres a deal on at HG for....' that wouldn't be spam, you have no vested interest to sell leathers for them, I think the crux of this argument comes down to that, if someone has joined and only posts advertisements for their company its spam, or unsolicited advertising at the least, If its on occasional heads-up by a member then IMO its something different... ____________________ [Current Bikes - GSXR-750 K5 & C90-97 ] [Previous Bikes: Runner 125, YBR 125, GS500, Bandit 600, Hornet 600, ZX6R-99, C90-99, R1-99, XT600E-04, GSXR-750 K4, CRF250L '16] |

I think I have mentioned one or two sales that we did have on.
I have no intentions in spamming this forum - I would like to keep my gold blobs  |

Alright i accept some might find it useful, i just found it distasteful for an employee to sign up with the intention of advertising stuff.. ____________________ [Current Bikes - GSXR-750 K5 & C90-97 ] [Previous Bikes: Runner 125, YBR 125, GS500, Bandit 600, Hornet 600, ZX6R-99, C90-99, R1-99, XT600E-04, GSXR-750 K4, CRF250L '16] |
