First 2 reviews are weak... well, actually the Burton Stiletto Binding review is a review of the packaging, not the binding. The 3rd review is a review of the customer service, not necessarily the binding.

http://www.trusnow.com/profile_reviews.asp?pf=344587

Does this even qualify as a review?

THat box review... i just dunno where to even begin? Was it satire? :O I always thought i was great with the double edged nature of irony, but after reading that i dont know where anything is now anymore :(

Left the customer service review. I know i know, but he did say what he was having problems with, and it was an issue directly relating to the product, and customer service is a part of the purchase as far as im concerned, so its a legit gripe. Ideally obviously, this is EXACTLY what thbrand reviews should be all about, but no one wants more brand reviews on the site. :)

i love that his quote is merp. but still seriously impressive to be on for 2 months and already be at 1500. pretty decent hours he is putting in for a hundred bucks.

ive stopped bothering with flagging them. Best thing is to tell Allie or george and theyll shut down their coupon going through on their account. In the past it was autmoated, now someone has to input the code. If you do it by taking the piss and abusing the system, pretty easy to just not send you the code.

^ I guess that should count for something, being polite these days is rare.

Still makes me wonder why someone would go through the trouble to set up an account on a snowboarding web site only to post links to their crappy knock-off products or web service or what ever they are selling. There are much larger online communities out there, why a snowboarding forum and how do the spammers go about finding this forum?

New guy didn't learn from his 1st review being spammed so he goes ahead and writes another review for an item he hasn't used.

Poor reviews. Reading his newest 2 reviews today, doesn't look like he's learned anything from his first crappy reviews back in 2010.

A post about skiing with an attempt at a fake signature, which is actually part of the post.

You're entitled to believe anything you want, personally I think your post quoted above is purely spam-alicious.

The purpose of me replying to those posts is two-fold: 1) bring attention to the thread so the mods can close or remove it; 2) if the spam-OP actually comes back and reads the replies he/she might get the feeling he/she isn't welcome here.

1. Those spammers NEVER go back to their threads
2. The mods don't have to close it cuz everyone cept you knows to ignore it... Your replies just keep those threads around longer
3. Stop that shit

And to please the uptight posters here who seem to know what goes on in a spammer's head I did not post anything on the spammer thread (so please remove bunched up panties from ass).

On a related note someone ought to take a look at the Funny Pics thread, there are several redundant meaningless posts there.
