Yes, you're 'out of line'..You've CROSSPOSTED to 6 different
newsgroups..that is frowned on by many, especially since it's a Commercial
advertisment trying to SELL A SERVICE, no matter how artfully disguised.
COMMERCIAL posts are frowned upon...these boards aren't intended as a rule,
for advertising one's product no matter how wonderful the creator believes
item or service to be.
Consider what these newsgroups would look like if every (thousands of)
business crossposted their service(s) [ADS] to Six or so groups.. CHAOS !
.. like scrambling the entire contents of the YellowPages and hitting
"SEND"
http://lipas.uwasa.fi/~ts/http/crospost.html: in part, says
"The number one rule of cross-posting is that cross-posting should never be
used indiscriminately. If you feel that it is necessary to cross-post,
consider carefully your selection, and keep it down. Avoid cross-posting to
groups that are branches of the same sub-hierarchy, that is don't cross-post
to adjacent newsgroups"

You'll NOTE, I've removed FIVE of the groups from my reply.
