I know, that's what makes it even more stupid, had he made a normal post saying this is my site etc, would have been no problem, but to ask if anyone uses this (his) site or know any better ones, mental.
I agree that the approach was slightly naive. Once the first guy replied I guessed that by having my post listed it may cause offense so I looked for someway of deleting it - which it seems I can't do. So I thought the next best thing would be to edit the post, I wasn't thinking about it indexed until one of the next posts mentioned it.
I would like to say that I think its a bit over zealous calling one post spam, but if thats you take on it - fair enough.
As I mentioned in my previous post, the reason why I removed the post was to prevent any further offense.
I have read through the link you posted and I fail to see which of the definitions my post falls in. The first one talks about commercial postings which relate to a highly competitive market. As pointed out in a different post with-in this forum by someone promoting their version of this type of software (oDNS) there is no other software operating in this space. The second talks about unrelated links, mine as one of your admins points out, is on topic. The third is by placing links in the signature, mine wasn't. And the fourth is about redirects to pornographic sites, again mine wasn't.
But beyond all this I admit it was a naive thing to do, and a mistake I won't be making again in the future.
