Hmm, maybe we have a business model here. I could easily enough make such spams not appear to users with over some threshold of karma, which the spammers presumably wouldn't have. Can you point me to the page with the offer?
Not prepared to post it here (for obvious reasons)
I will email it though (you will need to register on a forum and make a few posts I think :) been a while since I joined) if you wish. Which email goes direct to you?
Well no response... if you are interested I have a draft email composed. I'll send it to <your username> @ ycombinator.com later today if I dont hear anything...
Though I suspect you were attempting to call a bluff ;) oops...
The last request for spamming HN I came across was worth about $1,500 and up for a front page spot.That's a lot for a single link.
