Not that kind of spamming. I was sending Penguicon advertisements to the LUG lists roughly every
other week. Which I now consider a form a spamming and tend to avoid, with the exception of a
single reminder about the con a few weeks out and leave it at that. I'm not even certain if
they're annoyed at us, I do happen to know that their lists are moderated and they never forward
on any messages that I sent after a bit.

That having been said, I won't hit the lists like that anymore, because I get the feeling that
it's not appreciated.
