Dear Lord, I've turned into a spam generator? I knew it would eventually happen. And I haven't had spam since I was a kid......

Something's wrong when two posts gets you kicked out of the OLF.

Bruce, I just checked the "SPAM" settings, the time intervals between making consecutive posts is 15 seconds,(no more than 2 posts per 15 secs) and there is a max of 5 posts per 2 minutes.

Bruce, we have the system set up so that when you are online, it will set off a spam alert just to make you ask the question.

Maybe it doesn't count as spam if you put in enough smiley faces.

I bet it was a double click.

Second note: I found the answer to rejected posts. IF the Subject Header gets to long, "RE RE RE RE etc ad indefinitum..... It rejects your post.

If your posts get kicked out shorten the header and it will then go on through. That is unless you doubleclick or something else the software doesn't like? Works for me.

Man, you beat me to it! We're gonna need a new tag for Serge...not even a name like "Grizzled Veteran"...more like just a pure spirit thing, or a symbol with no pronunciation like Prince used to be!

Someone should tell the Hawai'ians that, spamming is not permitted, cause whenever me and the missus stay over on the big island they are always trying to feed us spam sushi, fried spam sandwhiches, .
Of course its an insult not to accept food in the native Hawai'ian culture.
{hey, mabye they are just saying that to get us to eat spam! }
Cheers

Did you guys know that on this lovely planet, a can of spam is opened every 4 seconds?!

For yer information folks, i did eat spam for dinner and was wondering what a gathering of animals called SPAM looks like? Is SPAM as furry as a Bear?

Spa sushi?!?    I love sushi, but I don't know about that one.

My mom used to feed me fried spam and eggs for breakfast.

There used to be a web site called "The Institute for Spam Research" It was hilarious, may still exist.

I guess I'm in real trouble. MyGF's step-brother drives over the road-was hauling a load including "LOWER SODIUM" Spam. Pallett got dropped so was rejected. We all now have a lifetime(albeit shortened by its consumption of the stuff)supply.I actually like it.So, weekly episodes of spam are part of my life routine. However it still reaches its peak of "haute cusine" when pan fried on a cold day in a duck camp or boat.With "occluders" {eggs}of course and between your teeth coffee. Probably not politically correct, but it is something we river ratz still do.[Austin Minnesota, home of Hormel has a Spam Festival each summer-they pronounce "Hormel" with emphasis on the first syllable.]Miketobey38813.6708333333

Bruce:
I double clicked once and got the same result.

What does "low sodium" SPAM taste like? Of course, "low sodium" if you're talking SPAM still is maybe 1 gram salt per 1 gram SPAM!

The menu litany above- anyone else a Monty Python addict? One of my two law partners gives me a volume of the DVD collection each Christmas-he's holding back the one with the "Norwegian Blue Parrot."PS When quick multiple posts are done in a kindly spirit of friendship, shouldn't that now be called "Serge-ing?" One man has revolutionized internet terminology!
