My issue isn't whether he's a good trader. I didn't ask to trade with him, and
I don't have the interest. I don't care if he's a good trader.
No, my issue is with his incredible lack of tact in resorting to spam to
further his business. If he wants to advertise himself, fine, just don't do it
at my expense in my inbox.
By simply deleting the e-mail and doing nothing else, I'd encourage his immoral
business practices. By discussing it in a public forum, I can -- at the same
time -- alert others of this spammer, and give him a hint that there are those
who don't put up with his kind of abuse.
Cheers,
