What is it with businesses spamming?

Why is it that businesses think they can come on the site and just post their sales, or list their items?

Would they like it if went and stood in their storefront and pimped my consulting business inside their shop?

If I was a door to door marketer and decided to setup my sale space in their space and harass their customers, how long would it take them to give me the boot?

I totally agree with your statement Michelle, they can at least ask nicely before advertising about their business, even though everyone suppose to read the rules before posting.

because most people dont think off TCC as a Business itslef, they think it a free forum, which is far from the truth.
What ever happened to the sunoco vouchers?

Yes Salman few of them had been posted past week or so.

There are rules and guidelines for reason, and clearly few Guests have failed to go over them.

i don't recall ever reaping any benefits from your usage of the forums...you've been here on and off again for a few years now gratis

the $5 vouchers were given out to paid members..if i remember correctly it was at one of the weekly meets at Kennedy, year of 2003 i believe was when they offered up the program

I was simply clearing up the fact that tcc, is a bussiness, (in it to make money), not a non-profit organization that keeps in mind the best interests of their members before $$$
This is why Ill never be a member of such a so called club.

we're still in January
December is last month...
if you bothered to investigate tho, every month has been awarded since the inception of our gas card giveaway (note, at OUR expense)

and re: January...it would be kinda stoopid to have a draw without having all the entries wouldn't it??

and ya, i guess the bbq in the summer was all about the owners making instead of spending money..
oh, and the christmas dinner too...
if you had a clue about anything i'd be amazed, but you keep trying to dig up and stir the shyt pot w/o knowing wtf you're talking about
