ATTENTION CNET..Spammers are hard at work!

Why do my posts keep getting deleted? Something very fishy going on. I am sick of seeing all of these reviews for things like the ipod, psp, tv's and other electronics beeing perpetrated by reviewers who try to tell you that they got the item for free! Wow, I rate it a 10 and guess what...it was free, just go to www.------- and you can sign up. What a bunch of crap! not only does the post lose legitimacy and now the average user rating is affected, but it is just a bunch of spam, luring people to a site that is going to eventually ask for your credit card! nothing is free. CNET...why are you deleting my posts complaining about this atrosity. Are you somehow behind all of this? Does anyone else out there care that the consumer reviews are being blatently adulterated by these spammers? AHHHHHHH.

You spammed the boards. Spam is noted by the moderators and all of them clean it out.

If you want to post, sure. But don't spam and be on-topic.
