1. It is not up to you to decide what spam is, nor me.
It is my belief though that very few people think
that spam has anything to do with asses.

2. I was writing about cross posting, not spam.
Therefore I don't understand your reply.

3. Make calling other people that disagree with you
"mentally ill" make you feel more comfortable?

4. You still being here proves that you are affected by
what others write.

Cross-posting is not a bad thing, per se, as long as the post is
appropriate for all of the groups involved. Of course, many cross-posts
are off-topic, trolls, or spam, so a lot of people automatically react
unfavorably to all cross-posts.

The way I understand it, if you cross-post to 100 newsgroups, the text
only appears once on the news servers; the header line that contains the
group names is only longer.

But John...
You are a top poster too and that, added to cross poster, means you are
really a bad, bad, boy. Now incorporate the cardinal sin of spamming the
groups - which incidentally no one dropping the can on you would ever, ever
think of doing... And you have what I would call multiple sinning Johnny.

You are probably aware that the only people allowed to have multiple sins in
these groups are not allowed to Spam. Let's face it, John... You'll have to
buy a Canon and become one of the anointed few allowed to have multiple
sins!
