Look, I hate these adds, I never understood these things. I have never
clicked on one, I have never seen one that sparked my interest so bad I
bought anything from one. I don't know a soul that has had any dealings with
one. Why do these folks do it? Have any of you ever clicked one?
What in the world would possess a person to get up in the morning and think
it was a good idea to advertise this way? People are insane.
On the other hand, I have never meet a bunch of better folks. I have met a
person I call a friend now through this list that I would probably never
have met. I have seen acts a selflessness that make Jesus look like the
devil(well maybe not that extreme). I have seen parts sell, traded, and
given away. I have seen rides planned, and our own mini-rallies put
together. I have thanked folks for good advice and have been thanked.
Remember to loop list bike? For those that were not here it was a bike that
was gonna be built out of everyone's spare parts. This bike would be passed
around the country like a drunk prom queen around a party:-)
Anyways the pluses are far greater than these damn adds. But it is the folks
that make the list, not Topica. So I guess, tell Topica to hit the bricks.

PS Thanks to Dave & Charlie

Okay...
Let's have a "show of hands" on who else feels the same as Clifton and
Gary. Personally, I haven't been subjected to any more spam since I
joined this list than before and have no problems getting my Loop mail
because of the ads. Yes, I agree the ads are very annoying, but Topica
says "they need to do this to continue the lists for no charge". I just
ignore them and read the message. It also helps if when you reply to a
message, cut out the ads already there instead of sending them again and
again.
If y'all would rather we go somewhere else, then I'll set it up and
transfer all the list members. Suggestion of where to host the list in
addition to Clifton's suggestion are welcome. Thanks for this list (for
anyone who doesn't know) go to Dave Otis, who created it in May 2000 and
maintained it until I took over a while back.
In closing, anyone who wants to unsubscribe need only click on the
appropriate link at the bottom of Loop List email messages or send a
blank email to: Loopframe_Guzz-@topica.com . Cheers,
Charlie

SPAM and adverts: I have been computing on forms of the internet since 1990. Until I joined this list late last year, I never received spam. I know others have had terrible problems but with knowledge and care I avoided this problem for all these years. I am now receiving spam on the account subscribed to this list. I am still spam free on my other accounts. I believe it is because TOPICA has sold this list. This alone is reason to unsubscribe. As for the ads, it's a free service, so I'll throw them this bone. I will not unsubscribe until some generous soul has established another board. I might recommend www.ezboard.com for a free discussion board. Thanks anyway to those who have maintained this list. Thanks in advance to whoever creates the replacement.
