Default Re: A Vocabulary Trainer registered by 30 Universities

Sortoma, you have posted a number of answers which point to this piece of software- this is spam and I have deleted the others. We are happy to allow people to post a link, but we are not happy to have our forum spammed. You have also included information that is not accurate- the program is not free, but costs 19 euros. You can only download a shareware 30-hour trial version. Saying something is free when it is not is false advertising and, basically, dishonest, as is posing as a user when you are trying to market a product. When I saw the first post, I added the site to our links database, giving it a permanent link. Then, I discovered that you have spammed our site.

I have left the link in the database because I believe the software could be useful, but I have removed the spam because I will not have our forum treated this way. In future, please do not masquerade as a user when you are promoting a product and please give people an accurate indication of the price you are charging. A free sample is not the same as downloading something for free.

The link is here:
