The comment about spam was certainly not directed to your comment. Spam is any form of advertising or promotion or placement of links on the forum, believe me that many try it especially those selling medical aids to improve your sex life and many try to promote their own competing sites!
We try to stick on topic here and it means the forum has become a reference that people can refer back to time and time again, wheras many other forums are just full of everyday banter and the good stuff gets buried.
