I don't know any spammers. I don't *SHOUT* a lot either.

After you have worked on your attitude problem, you need to learn to count.
The quoted message was 38 lines long. Big fscking deal. What a heinous
criminal I am. Quit whining.

No it does not. Your original complaint was that the message I quoted was
spam. As others have pointed out, that is not the case. They are not trying
to sell anything, they are looking to pay a developer to provide a service.
Rather than simply acknowledge your mistake you are now trying to backpeddle
in a most undignified manner by insisting that my "excessive" quotation of 38
fskcing lines of text was all that bothered you. Go read your original
message and realise what a fool you are making of yourself.
