Hi to the list, Maybe Colin did make a mistake in sending to the LIST, but everyone makes mistakes now and then. I'm one of the people who have assisted Colin with his JENNER enquiries and thought it a very kind gesture. I'm sure Colin will realise, in hindsight, his offer should only have been emailed to the people who have helped him. I do not feel that he should be barred from the list unless he continues to advertise his website.

IMHO that is a very fair way to look at it - I wonder how many of us could quote the 'rules' chapter & verse, off the top of our heads. And what is more amusing (to me at least) is that his 'offer' is being advertised even more by further discussion:-) > > Sandra Shelley > > > ----- Original Message ----- From: "Geoff" <geoffrey.everest@free.fr> To: > <SUSSEX-PLUS-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Wednesday, November 21, 2007 9:58 AM > Subject: Re: [SXP] Jenner - thank you > > > > Hello list, > > > > Isn't this some form of spam? > > > > Geoff > > > > > > > As a thank you to the many people who have helped me with my Jenner > > > research I would like to offer a 10% discount on our Genealogical > > > Storage products (certificate binders, photo & memorabilia albums > > > etc..).

Hello list, I did not intend to get anyone punished or even provoke such a debate. However, we are dealing with a famhist pro who should know the basic rules. Geoff (a very nice bloke when you get to know him)
