The classic symptom/result of deadheading it. Nothing to do but replace it and correct the situation that caused it to deadhead. I do recommend installing an external system relief valve and pressure gauge as Jim suggested. Cheap insurance and handy for diagnostics.

HEY! What the HECK???? Somebody hijacked my post and put in that BS live link about insurance. I DID NOT DO THAT! What is going on here? If anyone can edit/modify my posts, I'll never post again. This is just WRONG!!!

 

[Rich Waugh]

Someone other than me modified my post to make my comment about insurance a live link to some insurance agency. This is so wrong I cannot express it in words! How can someone else modify my post unless he/she is an administrator? If an admin is doing this it is even more wrong!

For the record, I did not make that live link, I have no connection with that insurance agency and I am willing to prosecute whoever modified my post to make it spam.

Every time I use the word insurance it is automatically turned into a live link to advertise some insurance agency. I am NOT the one doing this! This is either a bad security breach of this site by a hacker (most likely scenario) or the site itself is doing it to promote a pet client - either way, it is morally and legally WRONG! I have reported this offense to the administrator(s) of the site, and am considering reporting it to CANSPAM and/or the Federal Trade Commission as well.

Don't use the word "insurance" in any post or it may happen to you as well. "In*urance" or some similar dodge may not trigger the bot, I don't know. We'll see. Where I put the word "ins******" in quotes it did not turn into a link, from what I can see. I hope the site admin will address this issue quickly, otherwise I'll have to cease any connection with this site until the problem is resolved - I simply will not allow anyone to modify my posts without my prior consent. What would be next - my checking account?

It's Mohammed's doing. It's his website. He controls who-what-where can advertise. Simply follow the money trail.


This site is not 1/8 as bad as others. Some are so blatant an entire page opens, and some sites have heavy adverts between the posts which really screws with your mind. This pales by comparison.

I guess I'm just naive and generally unaffected by such things so this shocked me. I should know better, I suppose.

The offensive thing to me Bob, is someone altering my post in a way that makes it appear that I am endorsing a particular business. Hey, I regularly endorse Affordable Tractor and other dealers since I think they deserve it, but that's MY prerogative in what I write. No one else should be able to control my endorsements in any way, unless he wants to pay me for being a flack. That's just straightforward business, to say nothing of being compliant with copyright law.

Yes, it's Muhammad's site and if he wants he can delete my posts for cause. He's done it and it was not unreasonable when he did. No complaint. But this is not the same thing by any means. I've addressed it and we'll see what happens. I'll probably get the Joe treatment here, but like you say it's Muhammad's site and he has the power to pitch me out if he wants. Life isn't fair sometimes.

An advertising gambit, pure and simple; Google is almost certainly behind it. They charge a fee to scan web pages for keywords associated with specific goods and/or services. Each occurrence of such keyword is linked to the commercial entity who paid Google for the service. Website owners are complicit. They voluntarily sign a deal with Google to permit these arbitrary insertions, after which they get a share of the Google fee. It's just another in a long list of reasons why I try as best I can to avoid all things Google.

I realize that the site has to be paid for and advertising is what keeps it afloat. I'm okay with that, as I learned a long time ago there ain't no such thing as a free lunch (Tanstaafl), but changing a post in a way that gives the appearance that the original author endorses some company is so unethical I can't believe that it isn't also illegal. It also personally offends me, though that doesn't carry any weight, I know. Whoever is behind it has a tenuous grip on the ethics of intellectual property rights, I think.

At least now I know something of what I'm dealing with here so I can adjust accordingly. My naivete has been at least partially corrected. I know the process isn't going to change, as once the money has started flowing no one will be willing to shut it off, short of a court order.
