Is that spam? Is spam allowed on this board? Will some more experienced member give an opinion? How does one reach the moderator to report offenses (if indeed this is an offense)?
 
In my opinion, it is spam. This is someone who saw that some of the members are working to develop GTD software, and he is trying to sell his services. That is the only purpose of this post. For this type of board, lionel's very first post is spam.

I don't think, however, this board has any rules posted. There may be some general censoring of certain words, depending on how the forum has been set up, and the moderator can move, delete or edit posts. Beyond that, no caveats have been listed. I do participate on boards that have rules posted -- this post would be deleted on most of them. I think the webmaster/moderator monitors posts. If you wish to flag it, you could contact "cyberscribe."

P.S. You can private message cyberscribe by clicking on the name in the first thread of the forum.
 
If this is allowed, the Russian sexbots should be allowed back. After all, they represent the original rent-a-pro profession.
 
Well, it's sort of spam, It's main target isn't the members of this board, but Google and other search engines that rank pages of the number of links to those pages. It's pretty easy for a bot to drop links on forums that don't require registration or make it easy to register with a script.
 
It's a clear violation of the ToU of this site: http://www.davidco.com/terms_of_use.php

To clarify, my previous post on this thread was tongue in cheek. I posted this because there seemed to be doubt about the existence of a ToS, and some doubt as to whether this qualifies. It if looks like spam, if it smells like spam....
