k.. WSJ people.. unlike the Native Americans, you will not take our land. You will learn to conform. Afterall.. you read the wall street journal regularly!! I’m in a foul mood.. I want to but this infocus thingie.. but don’t want to hate myself for impulsing.. and It’s time for bed.
I sense a second account name. Let’s be real… no one who is buying from WOOT is basing it on anything that is being said in the forums… except maybe for a review…
Actually, most of the rest of us are sick of the spamming too, we just don’t talk about it and usually wish it would go away or that some mod will hold up to the woot forum rules and delete the entire post. We let people like Mike fight for us. We obey the forum rules, and wish you would to, or if you don’t, we wish woot would delete your woot acct just 30 seconds before the new item so it screws you over. That’s what the punishment should be.
Here are the woot forum rules since you apparently missed them when you signed up:
What is not allowed in the community?
First, the usual disclaimer – we’re not responsible for the content of any user submitted post in our community. In practice, we’ll try to enforce some simple guidelines below. We want good and bad feedback and will not defend ourselves by means of censorship.
Do not post personal information such as address, phone number, etc.
Do not post any advertising where you are related or set to profit from the referral. (this means any reference to another site MUST BE ON TOPIC, such as a lower price found or a product review.)
Do not post fake reviews (good or bad) of a product you have not physically used or seen used firsthand. Feel free to post what you’ve heard, just try to be clear and upfront.
So stop posting your websites unless they are relating to the product at hand. . . your posts never are, and so you are always breaking the woot forum rules. Your weblink had nothing to do with our 4800 projector. Not a lower price, not a review, not a higher price. So keep it off since it doesn’t relate.
i just thought of a great idea… in addition to the whiner’s list, there could be a spammer’s list and/or a sick of spammers list. not only would this clearly show how some people need to drop dead, but it would also provide a way of showing ol’ pete how there are a lot more than 5 who are sick of him and his damn ‘deals’ :!
Hello. My name is MML666 and I read the WSJ. It’s been about 10 hours since I last read it. It started out innocently enough - I was in college, it was a free subscription, you know the rest. Now I read it all the time. I cant help myself. Mostly it is for the way the top news stories are printed on the front page, but I also like the Technology section. I am getting help and I hope it sticks this time.
Anyway, I’m glad to have met you all. Thank you for listening and have a good night.
BTW - I dont need one either, but it is a sweet deal.
I could punch myself in the scrot for not having the dough to throw down on this right now. I’ve been wanting/needing to pick one up for a while now.
Dear Woot-
Please make this available again some time in September.
With warm regards always,

woot! I beg you to delete this posting on the basis of obscenity. “Echuta” is a curse word, similar to “f*ck you” it is commonly used by CeeThree robotic units. Also this poster references male private parts, which offend me. Help me Galloping Cow, you are my only hope.
It’s true. I know a bunch of would be Wooters that have turned their backs on Woot because of the childish presentation of some people here. GROW UP. .
