Hi Linda, I'm with you and Rose here. I've gotten so many invitations that were nothing but advertisements. Is that really what the invitations are for ? I don't think so. Everyone checks out the person that is inviting them anyway. So why be insulting by making the invitation all ad ? I surely don't want to insult anyone with my opinion. But, we all need to think about it before we invite. I think that everyone is so concerned with making money, that they forget politeness. To heck with the money, I'll take the friends......Pat http://stores.ebay.com/Its-The-Real-Deal "A time and place for everything"

Hi Linda, You are speaking for a lot of us here on the forums! One of the most annoying things that anyone can do is respond to a post that we have thoughtfully constructed with a cut and paste spam ad that has absolutely nothing to do with the subject. It's been done with email for years, is being done constantly on communities and forums, and is even now being done on telephone answering machines!! :) I'm starting to receive quite a few phone messages spieling me on some fabulous biz opp where the sender can't even wait for the tone before they start sending the message. The messages start something like... "right from the start with no money down and no need to recruit, etc, etc, blah, blah..." I hope your message gets through, Linda! May God richly bless you, Dave

Thanks Dave. My message will at least get through in my forums. I know how to hit the delete key! I appreciate your support!

Hi Linda Miller, Thank You, ... it is a great idea to use more white space and better looking signatures. Still Loving, Living and Learning.

Good morning Linda, Amen! I am only one of the many who totally do not appreciate receiving an invitation that is 99% sales spiel. A lot of people are fairly new and possibly do not understand quite how it works (like me). When you sign your name at the the end of a post, do you think that 2 lines of a reference website you belong to is offensive? Maybe, you or other readers could share their view and offer suggestions for an opportunity to teach me and others a proper or acceptable protocol for our signatures. I look forward to your suggestions. Have a super day! Louis http://www.teampreneurs.com/promo.php?from=louisp http://www.12dailypro.com/?ref=129230
