Sorry, I did not know it was such a issue to you, perhaps a filter on
subject lines would help you in such situations?  If you truely wanted
this to end, then why are you feeding it by ranting back at my post?

I still feel this is a jobs list and it was not so far off topic that
people have to basically throw tantrums over it. Plus, the list is 
not for
just job POSTING, it is also for people to post that they are looking 
for
a job and that is what has started all this anyways, a concern over 
how to
address looking for a job.

But I guess since this is not directly a thread in regards to a 
employment
opportunity then everyone was wrong for having interest in it and now 
we
should all go to our corners.

"CF-Jobs is a mailing list dealing with employment opportunities 
within
the ColdFusion community. People looking for jobs in the field of
ColdFusion programming as well as companies looking for employees or
contractors are welcome to join"
