Martin Markoe (of eMicrophones, Inc) harasses, stalks, and violates
the privacy of innocent people who have nothing to do with
eMicrophones Inc's malicious practices. Besides being known as a
spammer, by itself Martin Markoe's willingness to push microphones
on disabled users (whose problems usually have nothing to do with a
microphone) provides insight into Martin Markoe's malicious
character.
Anyone can express his (or her) opinion here on USENET, but
advertising is not allowed except in groups specifically labeled for
selling things like *forsale* and *marketplace*.
Following are a few quotes to help illustrate the annoyance and
frustration spam from Martin Markoe (of eMicrophones, Inc) can cause
for users seeking help in the speech users group and why advertising
is prohibited on USENET with explicitly labeled exceptions.

You are not a technologist. You sell microphones.
Marty, how come whenever someone disagrees with you, you get into this
high school urinating contest mode? Actually I can't find your
credentials anywhere either, except as a guy selling something.

Man you really are full of yourself! Just leave me alone. I asked you
a question. Silly me, I wanted to know what I was buying before I
bought it. How absurd! I then get email after email after email from
you telling me that you won't answer my question and trying to justify
it. Lets cut the crap. You won't answer my question. I won't buy from
you. So now go away and let me get USEFUL information from someone who
will be honest with me instead of evasive, devisive and insulting!

More importantly I am not here touting my business. A position which
makes anything you say suspect, doesn't it.
I have been watching this group for a long time and you have managed
to turn it into the eMicrophones, Inc. mail list. Almost no one with
expertise posts here any longer.
http://groups.google.com/group/comp.speech.users/msg/6014c0e38032578f?
Is anyone else beyond annoyed with the two pathetically desperate
"small business owners" that have driven this group into the ground?
I subscribed 6 months ago hoping to learn something about the
"state-of-the-art" in voice recognition from the user's perspective.
All I've managed to learn is that most users are apparently being
ripped off by over-charging slimy weaseloid microphone hawkers.
Martin Markoe and Mr. "speaktoyourpc.com", I beg you to consider the
number of potential customers you're pissing off before you further
demonstrate your witlessness by posting again. Your childish
King-of-the-Group games should've stopped a loooong time ago.

Well said...Refreshing.
[That in response to the prior message.]

.... dealing with you on the newsgroups is not an easy thing and most
always turns into some type of flaming war.
.... you do get into fights with many regarding microphones and you do
wave your website around more often than necessary and you don't
always tell the truth about competitive products.
I didn't respond because I simply did not want to get into another
fight which is the reason my posts have been very light in the last
few months.
Here are my qualifications. Certified and trained for Philips
SpeechMagic, IBM ViaVoice, IBM Medspeak, Kurzweil VoiceMed, Dragon
NaturallySpeaking Enterprise & L&H VoiceXpress... So please, don't
call me a "Charlatan" because it is simply not true.
And believe me when I tell you that some users actually get better
recognition from $20 headsets than with $100 headsets.
I see vendors posting all the time and as long as you are not a member
of the newsgroup, there aren't constant one-up battles.

After getting caught with his pants down regarding his so called
privacy policy, Martin continues to make a complete ass out of
himself.
With this pattern of behaviour, the next step is usually
stalking--email stalking (... to menacingly spread deceit)
[Martin Markoe does that.]
http://groups.google.com/group/comp.speech.users/msg/84f362b69d93a460?
.... you don't see the authors in all the newsgroups in a constant
battle. Only with you Marty.
I have seen posts from you that link to as many as 8 direct links to
your website (all in one post) and your signatures fall within 5 or 10
lines long. In my book, that's called SPAMMING.
.... about 2 weeks ago, you claimed to have sold thousands of GN MPA
Satellites. I know for a fact that is not true.
Guess what Marty.... I have a life. I don't have time to live on the
newsgroups as you do.
This is the 2nd time you have mentioned me being moderated on user
groups. Last time, you apologized about confusing me with someone
else. YOU ARE OUT OF CONTROL MARTY MARKOE.
Marty, your constant abuse on these newsgroups... must come to an end.
http://groups.google.com/group/comp.speech.users/msg/5585a5e972b1cc1c?
I give up. I've dealt with delusional people like you before, and it
leads to nowhere... you continue attacking people who are FAR more
experienced and qualified than you, not to mention professional.
