This was the topic that I was actually looking for and about to write a post about.

I am of the opinion that people should be starting threads for sincere interest in topic or need to solve a problem....NOT for the sole intention of creating a topic as phony way to engage in networking for some related product or service.Sure, chime in on others people threads, but topic phishing is corny, IMHO!

There's so many topics on "how to find the deal!"
