Was this a PM on the forum or an email?

It should be noted that one of my personality traits is the ability to point out the blindingly obvious, yet ignoring the real question.

I didn't even see your pyramid scheme comment until after I posted either.

It's Monday, isn't it?

A PM on the forum, and as N9373M pointed out, a reply in two separate threads.

Posting a "reply" on not only one thread but two is bad form, but it's even more egregious to be sending members a PM hawking your illegimate wares.

If you guys see these again, please report it to the mods. Thanks.

And by the way, nothing wrong with pyramid schemes as long as you are at the top of said pyramid and not one of the bottom dwelling losers.

Genuine pyramid schemes are extremely hard to fund, Egypt almost went bankrupt getting theirs.
