Missoula, Montana. Paul Wheaton.

He used to post here a lot but kept getting banned for spamming all the time.

There are lots of sites with free information about rocket mass stoves and heaters without having to pay for anything or fall for sales gimmicks.

This guy seems to be the one they all learned from:

Can you cook ''SPAM'' in that oven ?????

It might cause a grease fire, but it would be a good heat source.

Are people going to cry SPAM if I start a thread about my projects?

That wouldn't be a problem unless all your posts were largely comprised of links back to your own sites and products. Some people would pop in once or twice a year, drag up some old threads, and post links to their sites where they were selling things.

note, this Peter guy is selling books

But he's not here posting links to his own site.
That's just the first site I ran across that had his name.
He's posted lots of information that can be accessed without buying anything.
Here's some discussion on his work:

He tends to give the raw data instead of making false claims about how little fuel it takes.
Real "spam" is pretty obvious.

So it's okay to promote stuff so long as there is a balance between useful posts and promotional posts?

That's the general idea.
They will let you know if they consider it excessive.
This section was actually originally set up for paid advertisers/sponsors, but I don't think there are any now.
