=======================

E-mail address edited - everyone should know by now how to correctly format an address in an e-mail.

How much spam do you want to be sent by the spam robots?
Post your e-mail address in correct link format and the spam robots will love it!

The alleged Counter-measures above which also proliferate this site actually have zero effect. A robot can just as easily parse an adjacent "at" and "dot com dot" versus "@" and ".com.".

I suspect they just aggravate the problem. Robots will be encouraged to harvest here more often in the hope that people will be imprudently disclosing their e-mails through being lulled into a false sense of security.

Ironically the "E-mail us to advertise" link here will actually bewilder and mislead many humans resulting in lost leads, while robots should just lap the precious information up.

In the statistically impossible situation that I was running a site like this, I would have seized on the "Power Pays" opportunity to run associated special promotions including selections plus a strategy to maximising bangs per buck.
