I don't think people with CaravelNet should be considered spam, to be honest. At least not immediately.
I don't think this case will come up enough to worry about, but in general, no, we're not going to allow blatant spam from somebody with a CaravelNet account. We would treat them with the benefit of the doubt however. We always have the option of disabling someone's forum posting privileges separately from his CaravelNet features or, as a last resort, removing his CaravelNet account and offering a refund.
I didn't see the post that's now been deleted, so I don't know if it qualifies as "
blatant spam"
or "
spam"
or "
guy posting in an off-topic way, but with good intentions"
. It's probably academic at this point, since real spammers wouldn't dream of dropping twelve bucks in exchange for an unreliable means of getting their message out on one forum.
