If he only stayed on this thread, that's fine; but he goes all over FT and essentially "advertises" KVS with these posts (look for yourself; they're almost all about KVS and there are always links to KVS).

By the way, KVS pulled me into this whole mix with his multiple "ads" on other threads that I have been in, constantly posting "KVS shows it's available" on threads that have nothing to do with KVS. Of course, the natural inclination when one sees all these posts is, "What is this KVS thing? Let me look into it." Sure enough, it's a commercial for-profit website....

So sbm12 is pushing the "purity" of FT by calling out the free advertising of KVS, which is the spirit of FT (to be commercial-free). Those who accuse sbm12 of not being in the spirit of FT are missing the big picture of what this moderator is trying to do: calling a spade a spade.
