Quote from dagnyt:

I do not believe mentioning 'my book' - and leaving out the title is in any way a violation of TOS.

In what way did you leave out the title? It was in the OP and in the response above to someone who asked the title...

And in what way did you think, "well, the TOS does not apply to me, so I will go ahead and make a pitch for my book, #1, etc. etc.?"

And now the blank stare that this is somehow different from all the other people trying to get free publicity???

Had you checked with the site owners first? I somehow suspect it must have crossed your mind, correct?

Everyone is subject to the TOS. Regardless of well wishers or others. If number one in sales, could you not afford to compense the owners via advertising?

Your suggestion that I don't think the rules apply to be is absurd, mean-spirited and serves no useful purpose.

I know I have done nothing wrong, but to satisfy your little mind, I will ask.

I assumed my title was not in the post because someone asked for it and I did not bother to check. It's pretty simple and it's the truth.

I did not make a pitch for my book. I actually thought that fellow forum members would be pleased that someone who contributes to this forum in a positive manner had achieved a bit of success with an options book.

The response shows I was correct.

There is no 'blank stare.' This is merely amusement with your pettiness.

As to whether I could afford to compensate the owners is not the issue. Compensate them for what? I did not 'advertise.'

If you can't trade, then write and promote your work everywhere you can.

If you cant trade, make stupid worthless posts and criticize people who can.

Mark,

I just saw this thread now. Congratulations!

It is quite a feat to have a #1 in any Amazon category I think.

TraderZones,

What's the name of the book you wrote that didn't sell?

mark promotes his materials all over the place TOS or no TOS, thats what people who write books and make websites and blogs do.

Just live with it.

Congratz on the ranking, the only info you didnt include is whether first place means 10 books to the others 8 or 10 thousand books.

It was 3,200 overall.
The high ranking feels good. There's not a lot of money in being #3,200

I wrote to whoever it is who replies when you write to 'contact us'

I wrote with a follow-up question, but 'they' did not reply.

My conclusion is that they do not really care - or else they would reply to all TOS questions.

Bottom line: They do object to my post.
