Re: Tile cutters vs. wet saw
I have a Porter Cable wet tile saw that I bought to do a bathroom and also a 15' long BBQ patio island. I don't remember how much I paid for it...maybe between $100-200. It was well worth it for my little projects. Since you have a lot of 45 degree cuts, I would recommend looking for one that can do these angle cuts well. I seem to remember that my Porter Cable tile saw was really only for straight cuts. Don't know why I bought a Porter Cable brand...perhaps that was what was on the shelf at Lowes or Home Depot at the time. I'd recommend getting a tile saw and if you don't need it afterwards just sell it to recoup some of your investment.

I just do not understand why posts like these are made.

Dusty, for this particular type, it is an attempt to drive people to the linked page. The page could be to a product or it could be to attempt to get people to install some form of malware.
The posts that don't have a link, I surely don't understand those unless they are trying to get above some threshold they think might exist in order to then post links.

Re: Tile cutters vs. wet saw
When spammers get their website links onto high-traffic websites, it boosts their search-engine rankings. The bots from Google et. al. will give them another brownie point for every link they find, which moves the site up in their rankings. This indirectly drives more traffic to the spammer's site.dusty wrote:I just do not understand why posts like these are made.
Only the website link matters -- the rest of the post is simply an attempt to look legit, so that the post doesn't get deleted. I don't recall ever seeing a bronze-member post containing a link that wasn't spam.
BTW, if someone quotes the spam post without deleting or disabling the link, and that quote isn't deleted along with the original spam post, the spammer wins. The link in the quote is still live, and it serves the spammer's purposes just as well as the original post.

Re: Tile cutters vs. wet saw
I was suspicious of a tile post on a wood working forum. I did not notice a link. I think we do need to leave what remains of this thread as being educational re spammers.

JPG,
The link wasn't very obvious, just dark blue against his name, easy to overlook. Take a look at my userid immediately below, which points to shopsmith.com, as an example of how it can be difficult to see and is pretty much what our "friend" did to start this thread.

Re: Re: Tile cutters vs. wet saw
Ah OK that is where it was. I saw that post as soon as it showed up. The first thing I thought was SPAM but no link so I didn't report it. I will have to start looking closer now.roy_okc wrote:JPG,

It is interesting that he started a new thread. I don't remember seeing that before. Usually they resurrect a years old thread for some reason.

Re: Re: Tile cutters vs. wet saw
John,
I think admins clean up stuff fairly early in the morning. I often see new spam threads early-ish, say before 8 Central. I'll report them when I see them, but often see that someone else has reported already.
