vietnamese pho ga

TJ, I never labeled a post as spam unless it obviously deserved it. Most of us here know the difference.

One would hope so

I would think the board moderators would know best (what is spam). I was hit with spam once and my post was completely meant to help.
 
Anyway back to Pho, had my first taste of Vietnamese food a couple of weeks ago.
Fell in love with it, and the people that run the place. A bowl of Pho is good for two meals but be careful of the hot sauce . It intensifies in heat the second day.

Chicken feet and balut. Yum

I think flagging it as spam had nothing to do with the recipe, but with the "worldnewsofcelebrity.com" link at the bottom of the post. 

regardless, it was a useful and topical contribution and some self-appointed board patrol officer marked it as spam
 
This despite that the the person (or persons) in question have been told more than once that the only way to get the mod's attention on the post is to use the "report abuse" button instead of "flag as spam". 

Great Pho can be found in Utica, NY at the Pho Mekong House of Noodles at 601 John St.
Check out all of the reviews online.....We eat there every time we are in Utica.  They never disappoint.

I'd like to thank Steadam2011 for posting that recipe but I see getting hit with an unwarranted "SPAM" label sent him away as that was his last post. Curious as to the motives for whoever did that to him?

I totally agree. There was no reason for that post to be labeled as spam!
Someone, especially a "newbie" who makes the effort to write a long recipe for us definitely belongs here. Although, I'd lose the "celebrity" link next time.

I'll speak for myself ... the odd atmosphere around here has impacted my enthusiasm for the community.
If enough productive posters, such as Steadam2011 are chased away, perhaps the moderators will find away to banish the bullies and encourage the new blood.

Bravo, wheregreggeats!

Just enjoyed some pho tai from a neighborhood Vietnamese restaurant in Syracuse, Mai Lan. Its a great meal on a cold day steamy broth with lots of flavor. I still have a couple pints and a spring roll waiting for me in the office fridge for lunch tomorrow..
