Let me know how that comes out. I guess I just firgured one of the big reasons to help someone in a forum (other than just to be helpful) was that it allowed people to find you. And since there was no place I could see in my profile to include a link, I included one in my signature. I didn't mean to cause trouble or require calling a meeting, but thanks for checking all this out.

Don't worry, since we moved to this new forum there is a conflict of opinions as to what constitutes spam.

In the previous PS Win forum it was considered that any advertising of goods or services should be excluded.

At least your posts are helpful – some of the real spammers don't contribute anything.

Real spammers should be dealt with as quickly as possible.

Edit Profile should now show places for a URL, a brief (1 line or so) bio, and a list of products you use.

Sorry, I was trying to be helpful and respond appropriately to peoples messages. I did not see a place in my profile area where I could link to my web site. I am freelance designer so my personal web site does advertise my services as well. Please let me know if there is some other place I should include my link, or if it was decided that my current place is ok. I did not feel like a small one line signature took up too much space or was distracting from the information in any way. Thanks.

I am OK with it for now. I have scheduled a meeting with more "Community" folks at Adobe to talk about this next week.

Thanks for asking!

That appears to be a link to his own design site. I don't consider that spam. We're looking for things completely outside the scope of the forums: sneakers, watches, porn, get-rich-quick, etc.

Thanks!

That's where the relevant links come in

Do you mean 'More like this" ? If so it needs some extremely serious work, please see my thread about wasting bandwidth on this silliness

Maybe you can pick up some more points here John?

We are talking about links within a message that someone posts. Nothing to do with the forum interface. Sorry that wasn't clear.

Post number 13 (by juggernuat) in the thread http://forums.adobe.com/thread/357877 appears to be from a SPAMmer. All 3 of 'his' posts point to stores of one form or another.
