I have been polite about it, friendly reminder type of thing, like I
said I have off two of these recently for b.s.t. My emailer doesn't
support bcc (as far as I know anyways) so that's kind of hard to do
directly, if you want I can either include you in the email to line or
sent you a separate copy...

I just want the auction spam in .auction not b.s.t so far I have not
had a problem with it, if I see anything really flagrant I'll be sure
to draw your attention to it.

Yes its much better than flamewars, that was kind a my take on the
thing, do we need to have and keep posts about this for posterity.
Besides most people doing this are not going to go through old posts
to find out this type of thing is not really welcome in b.s.t.
