If it were a pond book and a regular poster, I would think it unusual

up with the other moderators. My concern would be that it is a whole
post advertising. If a first post were of this sort and were followed
by a second advertising post, I would send the second back and assume
that the poster is advertising by hiding his wares in 'personal'
correspondence. Covert ads would not be appropriate in a pond
discussion group.

That my attitude.

Nick, out of curiosity, was the ad run in a moderated chess news forum?
If so, was it passed or denied? ~ jan

Unmoderated. Either rec.games.chess.analysis and/or rec.games.chess.misc
