Secondly, this is a for sale forum, not a forum for personal advertisement. If you want to sell something, then make a for sale post. But believe me, no one here will buy it from a new member that's here just to sell stuff. Thirdy, it is spam. Your first post here was self advertisement, not a good way to start things off. Then you defend the posted link (while insulting a longstanding member of the forum) as not spam by pretending you're linking to someone else's product that you just happen to like or wanted to share. That just screams spam. On most websites, the moderators would have removed that post faster than you would think possible and sent you a message about how they have paying sponsors and it's not fair to them, blah, blah. Here, on the other hand, we police ourselves, but still don't take well to people with the sole intention of selling product and promoting themselves. There are many people here, myself included, who make and sell fishing lures, rods, etc. that have been upstanding members who have contributed to the forum and made it what it is. That said, you have two choices: GTFO, or actually take an interest in the forum. Make conversation, make friends, and then the members here (who, by the way, are the best damn group on people on the internet) will be more than happy to help support your business and use your product and even recommend it to friends. But if you're just looking for a place to self-advertise, look elsewhere. BB

Pretty neat stuff, do you have it without the ribbon tail? Being that I have full blown monkey illness I might just give it a try. Thanks for posting it.

Flaoting worms
You want it like a thin dropshot worms. Like a neddle worm ? We do not as of now. I would say you can cut the curiltail off and make a v cut at the end of the worm for now. We did not think allot of guys wanted the needle worms. We are founding out guys like the 10" worms.

Chevy dont take it personal and I don't know when marketing becomes bad taste but then again I am no expert in that field. Or any other field now that I think about. You will get about 5-6 of these post on your thread, don't take it personal the site does not have a moderator. None of these people own the site so your free to do what you like.

Kevin (the owner of this site) sells advertising for fishing products on this site. I'm sure he would frown on you advertising without paying for it. I should think an attorney would understand that.

He has contact information including a phone number, maybe the guy is trying to sell some worms. Not every first timer is a scam. I just bought from a first timer a week or so a go and it was legit. Payment went to PayPal and all good. Maybe if we were more inviting and send them a PM first and find out whats up before killing them. If it is a new business they are starting they gotta get their name out etc. Now the asian text stuff I agree on that is "spambots" and looking at the source code you can tell that in one second. I don't know I just don't this kind of landing on a guy in other forums on sites that allow a first timer to post. Just saying. Besides if you are that scared of it being something don't click on it.

But there's no doubt that this is blatant self advertising. Something we don't really care for from members that are here for solely that purpose. BB

Thats your opinon
Thanks your opinion and I wont dispute that, but a few I would say maybe 10 or less feel that way. The rest either don't care or they simply look in here and if there is nothing of interest they move on. That's my preference. It does say Bass Classifieds and since there are no rules against first time people listing then I think we should leave that to them to do so. If the site owner had a real problem with it, he would put the same rules in place. It seems this site owner is after traffic and just lets the forums rip! IMO not looking to pick a fight, again.

The point is we don't like it when people use the site for the sole purpose of self advertising. And as I said before, if someone gets to be a regular helpful and respectful contributor to the site, they won't need to advertise here because we'll be happy to buy their product as long as it's a good one. But as it stands, the OP might as well be spam. I believe that's the third time I've explained this and will be the last. If you still don't get what I'm saying, reread my now three posts here until you do. BB

Hello everyone! My name is Randy G. I'm 25, married, work in Law Enforcement and live in Boomtown NJ. I've loved fishing since I was a kid and have never really been happy with most of the worms available in stores. I always wished I could find a worm that would float (I mean really float...like float a 5/0 Trokar!) So I decided to buy a simple curltail mold, some plastic. floatant and dye and make my own. I have caught tons of fish on these worms and thought I might have some luck selling them. I see paid ads at the top of the page would someone please e-mail or PM me information about how to get the the word out about these worms I'm pouring? Thanks Guys! Randy G. Ps Great site!

Ding ding we have a winner!
Yes boys and girls this is the first time I agree with KN.
This approach not only helps a new guy in the hobby out. The biggest clue that something is spam if you dont know how to check the code in the thread is really simple, they put their work into landing on a page and hardly ever have more than one or two sentences, almost always has misspellings etc. Depends on the goal of the spammer, some are just after a series of clicks. Regardless of what backyard logic you have heard there is no spam in the world that works with just ONE click of the mouse to wipe out your computer. May have been in the past but not currently. The other goal is to get you to follow a stream in which they cleverly disguise items for you to click on, each click pays them money. A very small amount of money so they need millions of clicks. I do happen to know that the software that is used for this forum has a very good "mailace" block which is why it takes more than one click to harm your computer. It's just like aids of the modern times of knowledge, you can't get from a toilet seat. Quote:

[QUOTE=kennethdaysale;387791]Chevy like Vegas I'm no marketing expert and like the other posters here I percieve your post to be spam or at least spam-like. You may end up being a regular here and liked and trusted by everyone.........who knows? If not, the following blue post would have been a better way(template) to go here and a better way to go on one of the many other forums of this type.

Why dos your profile say you live in SC but on this post you live in Boomtown NJ ? and your profile says you are allot older then 25 years old. Am I reading it wrong ? |

[QUOTE=chevy5099;387871]Not a problem, Chevy. I think if you stick around for a while you will find that there are some stand up people on here that know a ton about fishing and might find interest in your product. We have had a good heap of SPAM recently so it has everyone up in arms a little.

WOW. I did not think it will go this far with this post. I am sorry if anyone did not like me to post this worms on here. I did not see spending alot of $$$$ for advertising if no one would think of buying any. I wanted to see if they were interesting to buy first. Thanks Vegasspider I could not say it any better how I feel when I posted that report on the worms.
To : Bigbassin144. I see your point also. and I am very sorry if you think I insulted member MississippiBay. if Mississippibay had anything on he's mind he could of PM me of it but he wanted to show everyone on this post its spam. Its not Spam, We work very hard on making this worms, You can see by our web site and how long it took making those vidoes. and at $3.25 for a pack is not getting rich on it. We make this product in our basement. We just wanted to share a good product to everyone. Look at the Pro's on tv. They push allot of new products every year and they are not all good and some cost allot of money. By the way, BigBassin144. I also checked your web site out and I liked your jigs. If you did not write anything bad about our product I would of never seen your profile and your web address. You should of wrote a post about your lures you make they look good. We just posted the product and if anyone was interested they are welcome to go to our web site and buy some we did not push it on any one. BigBassin144, when you said....He has some nice worms....I said he, because its just not him that makes them. Its Me and He there are two people here. and I did think I put this on the Bass Classifieds RIGHT ? Or was it not ? Like Vegasspider said, If you and Mississippibay did not like use posted our worms then you could of just went by it with out posting anything and click on a new post. Would you like if I say anything bad about anyone posts on here ? No, well why should anyone say anything bad to use. Look its a good worm and you all went to the web site and seen it float. Thats stop all this bad talking and move on. By the way, I am a bad speller also do not think I am a spam person...LOL |

That said, we generally still consider posters that are here solely to advertise their own products at least spam-like. And we also call people out on it. As I said before (and this is the main point in all my posts here), just introduce yourself and start on your way to becoming a respected member of the forum and then you will receive the publicity and business that you desire. If you haven't noticed, this forum is unlike any other on the web. Our group of regulars and even future regulars is more like a family. And we watch out for each other. We actually don't have paid advertising on this forum and there really are no rules against advertising. However, the members here look upon people advertising and see either someone who just wants clicks on their webpage and orders in their inbox and those who love this forum for what it is and want to sell their goods to their friends. We frown upon the former, but the latter must earned. Quote:
