I just read this thread and after seeing that you took the liberty to digg your own forum rules, how did you NOT expect to be considered a spammer? I too would have dropped you.

I never used that site, but I did take the time to see what it was about after seeing this thread. You DID spam. Your goal was to advertise your site. If you were going to spam that site the way you did, you should have applied some common sense in the process. Posting 30 times in a day, all aimed at YOUR site, is easily noticeable. Perhaps you should have limited your spam links to maybe 5 a day. Then you would have at least gotten some publicity without the risk of being spammed. You should have also avoided such useless diggs like your forum rules. That just made everything apparent to anyone paying attention.

Quality posts being dugg are one thing, useless posts being dugg gain unneeded attention and you drew it all on yourself.

I know you may not agree with what I am saying and you can pretend that you were not trying to self promote in the manner it is being called out (spam), but perhaps you should step back and look at it from an unbiased perspective.
