Probably a US fan who has joined up and posted this advertisement at various TFs forums. (Registration procedure makes it impossible for a spambot to register and spam us)
Since it is TFs related news, above is a copy of the post in this news section.
It may well not be relavant for the majority here, but as jaydisc mentioned in another posting, it may interest someone - news doesn't have to interest the majority for it to be posted here.
(that said, the person who posted it, probably should have checked first if it was okay to post their advertisment here, as it could still be seen as spam, even if it is TFs related)

I apologize. I did not realize this would be considered spam. I am an American and I did post it. I figured it would be news. I am also the guy who am creating the convention and I wanted the whole world to know about it. I once again say sorry for this posting if it is against your rules.

Hi,

Sorry I apologize. The promotional nature of your first post through me off. Thanks for letting us know about Slag-A-Con

Where's "IN."?

^Indiana I presumed

Slag a con? LOL!

Yes, IN. is Indiana, United States. I liked the name and it has a double meaning. Slag is a dinobot(G1)-A-Con (Convention). My actual meaning behind it was Slag as in destroy, A, Con as in Decepticon.

I am glad you guys are no longer mad at me. I was worried about it. I actually like getting on TF Fan sites from around the world to see the differences in toys and such. Thanks for accepting me to your site.

I don't think anyone was mad at you.

Slag is also a profanity for Transformers, so it can also mean "&$%# a 'Con!" ;D :p
