    Come on guys, is it REALLY necessary to post your add EVERY DAY?? Once a week would be plenty and not be spamming the echo.

    I've always posted once a day in the BBS ADS echoes across FTNs; but I wouldn't mind switching to once a week if everyone did, or if it were an FTN rule...

    I just do what the rest of us do.

    once a day seems reasonable to me. I like seeing the ads come thru!

    So your a sheep then?!


    I don't post my bbs add due to the same ones being posted over and over and over and over. It would just get drowned out....

    But then no one would know about there supper spiffy ellite bbs system. #);

    To spam the adds is to block out any chance of another bbs add being seen.

    Be brave, start a trend that your bbs add goes out only once a week.

    Off the 600 area's on this system that have 8000-10000 message limit's the bbs add area's are either set to 50 or on pass through due to
    the spamming of a single bbs's add.

    Just like the BBS software centric taglines and sigs. That others that don't run that software, just see junk.

    Once a day for the same thing that isn't changing is way to much. Once a week is plenty.

    I post every other day or around that.. I do it on different networks, if everyone is doing it once a week then I can change my script. Otherwise, do like me, unjoin that echo and skip right over it.. :)
