It's a story site. Promoting one's work certainly isn't against the rules. If a member sends a story link and announcement to their friends, so what?
Nicola designed the option to send a message to all your friends into the site's coding a long time ago. It's often used by many people to promote their stories or to send some greeting or announcement.
Deleting any unwanted message is just a simple click. Why would anyone be so lazy that they get their nose out of joint/panties in a wad over that?
If you don't want those messages, simply use your settings to click the box to not receive them.
If I write a story or poem that I feel is good enough to post on Lushstories, I am proud of the work and want as many people to read it as possible. I will and do send out a story announcement to all my friends. To me, having my work read by many is a major goal. If you don't want a lot of people to read your work, handle that however you wish.
Without a scientific survey I have no idea how effective it is. But as of this posting I have 51 Famous stories and 6 Legendary stories. I have written 81 stories and poems, if you eliminate the 22 poems, that is 59 stories with 51 making it to Famous (30,000+ views) and Legendary (100,000+ views). I have well over 3 million story/poem views. I've always used the 'To All My Friends' messaging to announce a new story. So I doubt that it hurts to send it out.
I do not mind receiving mass story announcements. If it's from someone on my friends list, it is NOT spam!

Buz left a kind comment on my contest entry so it's a safe bet he's hard at it trying to read and vote on all of them before the deadline, as is his commendable practice.
And speaking of the contest, the deadline for entries is, depending on your locality and state of inebriation, only five days away. Any word on when that 'delayed voting deadline' feature will get cranking?
I am giving it my best shot. During the previous comp, I was so overwhelmed at work and socially that I knew I couldn't get all of my friends' comp stories read and voted on, and some may still be in my queue. If so, they'll eventually be read, voted, and commented on. But I am shooting for getting the ones in the current comp done by the deadline. I have some more to do by then.
I'd like a Bloody Mary for some reason. That just seems tasty. Hmm... either that or a Long Island Tea. Cheers y'all!

Do you eat breakfast on the set of TV cereal commercial?
I can just see you sitting at the table grinning ear to ear as you..
Oh man... the Zopiclone is kicking in.....
Must...make...final comment... Corn Chex...so much worse than Cinnamon Chex..both maintain their crunchiness in milk, and from a nutritional perspective both are adequate sources of Niacin, Riboflavin and Iron.
But Cinnamon is just... so ...much better....
My favorite cereal is TRIX, and I know Trix are for kids but I don't wanna grow up. I also like Frosted Flakes cause they're GREAT!
Capn Crunch is good too... stays crunchy even in milk! (What the hell else is anyone going to put it in? Bourbon?)Today, I was in the drive-thru to pick up breakfast at McDonald's on my way to work. I swear the guy driving the carpet cleaner van in line in front of me was Hank Williams, Jr. That or the guy is the exact image of him.
I had a sausage and egg biscuit and coffee.

Raw water. Well, after suffering severe diarrhea for days on end and possibly allowing, who knows what tiny microbial creatures, into your digestive tract and possibly your blood stream, you can visit Mexico without suffering Montezuma's revenge.
Raw water. It could be a great treatment for America's obesity problem, and Canada for that matter. I just read a couple of articles recently about how the obesity epidemic has spread north of the border. Maybe Canada should've built a wall and made America pay for it. But thinking positively, the Canadians can drink the Raw Water until they've climatized their bodies as well, and lost a lot more weight than A Jenny Craig diet. Then they can skip Florida and all it's geezers mistaking the accelerator pedal for the brakes and driving over pedestrians on sidewalks, and go straight to Mexico.
I should get in on this raw water thing. I know of a lot of nasty poultry processing plants upstream from some easy places to draw water. I could call it Extra Raw Water and it might be best to market it in an opaque bottle.
All this or I'm just on another flouride high.

I was a hyper kid and liked a lot of action in cartoons. While like nearly anyone my age, I loved Homer Simpson, but I really loved those older Looney Tunes cartoons. My all-time favorite cartoon character is Yosemite Sam. And I loved Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, The Tasmanian Devil, Sylvester the Putty Tat, Foghorn Leghorn, etc. I also loved RoadRunner and Wylie Coyote. The old cartoons were the funniest. I liked UnderDog and Dudley Dooright. I also remember some old Mr. Magoo cartoons where Mr. Magoo would drive his car and cause everyone else to have a wreck and I'd laugh so hard. I still watch Looney Tunes if I can catch them.

Sprite's 'Awesome' awards started a tad slow with Buz and your barkeep being the first two recipients. But since then she's been picking up speed and is to me congratulated, seriously, for handling the awards and for the recognition of Larry. I'd give her a big 'thumbs up' but she'd probably want to know precisely where that thumb would be going up. ;)
Obviously, Sprite has a warm place in her heart for us. It must be our good looks and charm.
It is great to have Larry on the Awesome list. That list gets more awesome all the time.
