Because these goobers have repeatedly spammed RGMW before with untagged
ads. When it first started, myself and others sent polite emails to
them about reading the FAQ and simply adding the [AD] tag to the
subject/headers of their emails. (Exactly how hard is it to read an FAQ
or type 4 key strokes?) We expect the same from other commercial
advertisers that repeatedly post ads here, Castle Works isn't being
treated any differently. Hell, if Matt Sprange of Mongoose who
*contributed* to the 40K community here and via his web site for a long
time can manage to tag his off topic posts related to Starship Troopers,
then these weenies can tag their spam too. The person/people at
Castleworks pretty much ignored the polite emails about spamming last
time - which was a mistake. Folks wrote spam complaints about it to
their ISP and/or website host. Which apparently did get their
attention as the spamming stopped - for a good while. (Almost all ISP's
have as part of their TOS {terms of service} a section about posting on
use-net that basically says ignoring the posting convertions of a given
news group and drawing complaints from other use-net inhabitants is
groups for restriction or termination of service with that ISP.)

I don't think anyone would care in the least that they post here if
they'd just get off their clueless/lazy asses and tag their
advertisements so folks here could filter them out.
