What got you slammed for was the hook in the well presented bait. When someone comes here and says Fishing Buddy Wanted , you could have expected to get about ten invites from genuinely nice people who would have been your "Buddy". To open the thread expecting to find a good guy looking for a friend and then see an ad does tend to get people PO'ed.

My guess is a thread that said" Hi I'm so and so and run a charter service" would have slid by despite the advertising nature. Nobody here is looking for trouble in that way. However , to ask for fishing buddies gets to the heart of what this site is noted for. To be disappointed by someone looking for money when they posted as looking for friends is something that understandably gets people angry.
