Wow, you didn't delete this one. Very nice.

It's considered spam because you post this link EVERYWHERE you go, the SAME post, hoping to get some quick bucks off of whomever will click on it and buy something. Most people use banner programs or post these things in the appropriate place on a board. If there is no appropriate place, you should not be posting it. You're not "the marketer". It's an affiliate program.

It's one thing to go into a forum and say, "Hey, I found this great company, check it out!" and post a link to it. That flies if you have no monetary gain off of posting it and are only trying to help OTHER PEOPLE out. But when you are coming into a forum, EVERY forum you're on, and posting away hoping to make money, it becomes spam.
