Press Release: WiseImage 6.0 for AutoCAD released

WiseImage® 6.0 for AutoCAD solves the problem of incorporating scanned
raster data into a CAD environment. This is done by adding native CAD-style
raster editing and raster to vector conversion inside AutoCAD to facilitate
revision creation and new drawing production.

Consistent Software products have always being recognized for its
intelligent CAD-style raster editing technology. WiseImage 6.0 for AutoCAD
offers an exclusive set of enhancement tools to be applied to black/white
as
well as color images.

True ObjectARX technology, possibility to use AutoCAD dialogs and settings
and advanced customized interface in Windows XP style make WiseImage 6.0 a
natural part of AutoCAD environments.

Sorry, just calling an advertisement a "Press Release" doesn't make it
acceptable in a newsgroup like nz.comp or nz.tech.

Please don't spam, people will hate you and they will go out of their
way not to buy your products.

 

Still after over 12 years of BBS and newsgroup usage, we still get idots
like you that have to waste bandwidth trying to be a smart arse.

The idea of prefixing the subject line, is so you don't have to read the
messages you are not interested in. This is not Spam. I have clearly headed
the subject and placed the press release in appropriate newsgroups where
people are interested in new products and technology and I have not hidden
behind a no working email address.

It's idiots like you that are the problem, not business' telling interested
readers about their latest goods

Hmmm... a top-poster (I'll humour you by doing the same), clearly not
au-fait with usenet conventions -- such as the fact that adding "Press
Release" to the subject line of a posting doesn't mean it's not spam
when it promotes a commercial product!

Look Kevin, you're picking a fight with the wrong guy here.

Do you think it would be acceptable for every software vendor on the
planet to start posting their "press releases" to non-commercial
usenet newsgroups (such as nz.comp and nz.tech) so long as they used
your cute but unacceptable convention of prefixing the subject line
like that?

Of course not -- the signal to noise ratio would deteriorate very
rapidly.

What next, can we advertise if we use "ADVT:" as a prefix?

Can we post porno binaries if we use the prefix "ADULT:"?

Of course not. These newsgroups are not for posting advertisements,
advertisements dressed up as press releases, or porno binaries.

So, before you get into name-calling, take a good look at your own
sensibilities.

What do you say fellow usenet users? Am I right or wrong -- should we
open up these newsgroups to anyone and everyone in the commercial
sector who wants to post press releases?

 

In

Right on all counts

You were politely given some good advice. Instead of taking any notice of
it, you chose to carry on like the ill mannered jumped up bad tempered Ape
that you are.
The (nz) newsgroups are not for businesses to be flooding their damn ads
into. You're in the middle of a town, but there's no one to seen. Where
are you? You're either in a Ghost town, or slap bang in a newsgroup that
doesn't allow ads from Apes who happen to be in charge of businesses that
should know better.

Hi Mr. Been there, done that, before you.

It doesn't matter what you put in the subject-line, if it quacks like a
duck, walks like a duck and looks like a duck then it's reasonably safe to
say it's a duck. You can call it a swan but it's still a duck. Spam is spam.

Press Release? Does this look like a press-room to you? Are we reporters?

First you spam, then you respond to someone who calls you on it with an
ad-hominum reply, accusing *them* of wasting bandwidth, First calling him an
'idot' (I hope your programme writing skills are better than your typing and
spelling skills) and then a smart arse.

Do you always treat the public in this way? I would assume so by your tone.
I pity your staff (if you have any).

After seeing this ignorant and bad-mannered post, then the reply to someone
who is quite correct, I for one will be avoiding your products like the
plague and advising others to do the same.

By the way, if you were really that newsgroup-savvy you wouldn't have used
an un-munged address that will, no doubt, be harvested by the Swen worm, and
hopefully, other spammers. wasn't it? That's why
Bruce used a 'no working email address' but put contact details in the body
of his post. It's the professional way to do things and far safer.

Good luck with the business. I sure as hell wouldn't be attacking the editor
of a well-known and widely-read web site like that if I was trying to sell a
product. About the only person here who would have been genuinely interested
in your "Press release", if it had been emailed to him in his official
capacity.

Thanks for enlightening us as to your true colours
