Okay, time for another poll...

Does this count as spam?
Technically, its a surfing link to something you might vaguely be interested in, but its someone first post and a link to their own website.
So what do you think? Does it get moderated? :bang:
Or do we all participate and play nicely? :wink:

Normally I would say "everything in moderation, including moderation"

However, I reckon we're unlikely to see another post from this person and I wouldn't fill it in.

I've looked at the source code and if you trace it back, it does actually go to www.surfermag.com, and there is a link to this site direct from the Surfer Mag homepage. I reckon it's legit, but I would still class it as spam, since it's blatant advertising?

What do other people think?

Too many different colours! Remove it for trying to stand out from the crowd. We'll have none of that here thank you!
