Maybe he filled it or gave up. By the time it reached Hampshire
list he'd been hawking it since January. There have been no recent
posts about it anywhere else either. I'm not convinced that any
behaviour modification is taking place, or will ever take place.
The performance on GLLUG of even apparently going to the trouble of
setting up another identity was quite special.
If he toned it down I wouldn't mind, even if he never posted
anything else like he claims he would (this seems like another
blatant lie, given the vast range of lists he is on and the singular
nature of his posts, but whatever).

The belief that your offer is so good that everyone needs to hear
about it regardless of their own preferences is indicative of the
spammer mindset.
Cheers,
