I saw the post and found it absolutely legitimate, and foresaw it's utilmate demise as the world is full of self important wuck fits.

Ah yes, I found him! He just downvoted the above post and reported as spam. Let's show a bit of compassion for this tormented soul.

He wants to be careful. If it's the same one, he's already in a spat with Chris Maunder in sugs and bugs.

Talking of the birth of the elephant, there was another incident similar to the dawn of sunshine on British TV this morning when a presenter said “I regularly speak to clients about illness and pass the knowledge onto other c***s as well.”
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.

No. Chris gave me a reprimand when I described Serena as having Bodacious Tatas. It was definitely Sharapova whom I referred too as sounding like or me hoping she was Made Love To (against her will) by Tantor the elephant that got me banned.

Your post was fine
I don't see anything wrong with passing on a tip to other developers if it is a decent piece of software going cheap.

I agree. However, rule #6 says no advertising. So, whoever marked it as SPAM/Abusive was not incorrect. Trigger happy, perhaps, but not incorrect. 
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

If it's not my product nor am I part of it's sales force, I can't see how it could be deemed as advertising. At least by my understanding and the quick Google I performed for the definition of.

I personally don't think you were advertising the product. However, clearly someone did.

Well, advertising by the strictest sense of the word (at least how I understand it) is listing something for sale.

The only way to be sure to not get down-voted is to simply not post.
Hopefully, the hamster's minions will distinguish between the honest complaint and the various forms of drive-by/thin-skin/vendetta events that happen every now and then.
