This really doesn't belong on the list. As much as I appreciate open
discussion, there really was no need to send this. We worked out the
"for-sale" issue already and I don't think anyone involved reacted in a
negative manner, so I'm puzzled as to why you are.
As for your "CHANGE THE CHANNEL" comment, it would be inappropriate to get
on an AA mailing list and try to sell bulk orders of Jack Daniels, even if
your subject line said "I'm selling Jack Daniels". Along those same
lines, it is inappropriate to sell competing equipment in a forum that is
obviously dedicated to a particular product. Rather than say "don't sell
competing equipment," we've decided to say "don't sell anything, period."
I feel this is a fair request of the members of the list.

This isn't a support channel. You get toll-free telephone support with
every PortMaster purchase, so use it. Noone here is under any obligation
to help anyone. They choose to do so in their free time as a courtesy to
others. Also as a courtesy, we've asked that noone try to sell anything
to the list members. This isn't unreasonable in any way at all.
To turn your own argument against you, I'd suggest you unsubscribe from
the list if you can't handle the "beating around the bush, and getting
pissed, just answer the FU**ing question or ignore it" method you feel we
use... Turn the channel.
