Encouraging people who decide to change their habits

@Mark and @Mizz such great feedback coming from you guys is the reason I keep doing this. It's not work, I'm having the time of my life, no kidding :)

Hi Phillipe you are just great! You are a nice person who is caring and understands. You are encouraging and you also let others know when they are doing wrong, but you show them how to do it the right way. So I'm TOPPING this!!! :)

Phillipe this is an awesome post. Congratulations on your enthusiasm, mentoring and your ability to treat everybody with dignity and respect.

Helen, I never thought of that, the language barrier. Very good point. I'm happy to read your comment, I look forward to reading them more often :)

How like you Philippe to be encouraging, and patient with others. I think sometimes the language barrier has a lot to do with some of the behaviors. At any rate Good job.

LOL Dawie, you're the prefect combination of business seriousness, well informed marketer, and a very nice touch of humor. For those who haven't noticed, if that's possible, Dawie is the business expert of the week. :)

Cindy, you posted before the spammer. I hope you got the chance to CLICK as I and Dawie did, because when I submit this comment, I delete the spam post. I said it in a blog I wrote 2 or 3 weeks ago, I keep my blogs clean. :)

Philippe, well done. Not just for your efforts that clearly had a part in converting a 'ex-spammer', but also for supporting him on his new path of ethical marketing.

@Cakraningrat8, 'CLICK', music to my ears, the sound of my mouse button as i hit the 'REPORT ABUSE' button.

You're right, Laura, it's against ApSense TOS, only English allowed, with one exception, groups in specific languages, however, the admins of those groups must take of spamming themselves, as the admins won't understand the language

I reported her as well. Also, all of her stuff is posted in her own language. (I thought we werent supposto do that)?

Yes I took a shot at her too. That's a perfect example of a die-hard. Come to a blog saying not to spam and what does she do? That's right she spams it.

@Cindy, we have an example right above me. Sigh...

@Cakraningrat8 I'm talking to you in this blog, I wish you would have read it, instead of just claiming the credits. Guess you'll be reported numerous times for that one single spam post with a link which nobody sees :(

Of course, you will have at least one report, from me.

Thats what I love about you Phil. Your so nice and forgiving. You really touch my heart.

Another mind boggling tips although very straight forward but comprise lots of lesson to learn. :)Good work Philippe.

Many times it is because they do not know any better.
Perhaps they are doing as they have been told..
What a shame that is.
We just all have to keep moving forward
And hope that they will READ what is being written about them
But... they probably do not think it applies to them

Cindy

Philippe,thanks very much for sharing your information keep up the good work:)))

I will be happy to show the stubborn ones the door, either with my sledgehammer in hand, or ( gulp ) , accompanied by a very good friend of mine who's an expert with a M-60 :D

Reformed spammers are one of the outspoken against spam! I should know in my young dumb first internet days I was a spam machine. I learned better. If I can learn better anyone can. It's the habitual die-hards that don't give a damn that annoy me. They annoy me because they just don't care and will do things THEIR way and are not open to learning.

Some of them are now being forced to learn as the atmosphere here at APSense is becoming very anti-spam. They either must change their ways o

@Rieke, thanks for the feedback, I appreciate it

@Al amen to that

Thanks for sharing, Philippe. I have done my best to comply w/ everything here. I also realize people can make mistakes, and though ignorance is no excuse, if they change their ways, they deserve another shot. Forgiveness is a basic component of God's love.

Philippe, to give a feed-back, positive or little bit less - that's what friends are for. Sometimes we are doing things without reflecting, just because they serve our comfort. Than it is good to have an answer from the reader, the person who is confronted with what we are saying/writing.

Good that you pointed this out here.
