Seven emails from someone I don't know, giving me advice I don't need, encouraging me to change exchanges even though I already have accounts at both, and trying to get referral fees out of it - that sure meets my definition of spam.
Spam is getting
advertisements for male performance products or whatever, for no good reason, out of the blue.
Ms. BS's timely and responsive email blast was primarily an
advisory about the MtGox situation, with the additional
option of using TradeHill as a handy replacement also being provided.
Your objections just go to show that no good deed goes unpunished.
Mt. Gox had already e-mailed everyone, there was no need for any self-appointed "hero" to spam his affiliate link 8 times to 60,000 people.
If the e-mail had arrived ONCE, BEFORE the official Mt. Gox mail, and had NOT had commercial content, you might have a point.
