Get out the .45 :)

Rob Graham

I didn't see any advertising content in that, nor on the page they linked to. How is an announcement of a contest SPAM?

I don't understand. I don't view this as spam. He is making what appears to be a genuine offer to help unemployed or underemployed developers and benefit non-profit organizations.

He is making what appears to be a genuine offer to help unemployed or underemployed developers and benefit non-profit organizations. Why the negativity? There have been far worse posting in the lounge.

Agreed. I couldn't see anything wrong with that, if I was a US citizen I would probably appreciate such a post. //L

A nice gesture from you there Michael. Do you want to give a car away as well?

Where on earth did that rule crop up?

No spam here: presumably you shot first and didn't bother to hang around ask questions. Bloody typical - give a man a gun and *BOOM*

Pretty sure the purpose of that is so search engines will have a better chance of finding both the question and answer (and when somebody comes across an answer, they will have the context of what the actual question was). If it was a stupid question that should have never been asked or if it was a message in the Lounge, I do not believe the rule applies.

Even more reason to not delete the question. Live with the shame. ;P
