This problem actually you know better than other members in this bitcointalk forum, why this can happen to apply the topic in 4 times a day, because of you LoyceV, One of the most active mods in the idea of posting professional and useful topics.
I conclude if freightjo, doing this, if he does not violate the rules of the forum I think it's fine.
The policy to not remove anything worked when the forum was small. Now that we have thousands of posts a day, we can't afford 50% of them being junk. The moderators are now instructed to be less tolerant of low-value posts.
Some guidelines:
1. Free speech - you can say anything as long as it is relevant and presented in a calm and polite manner. Swearing, SHOUTING etc. make your post more likely to be removed.
2. No zero value posts or threads, like "SELL SELL SELL"
3. No pointless or uninteresting threads.
4. No referral code spam
5. No NSFW content

You know what, time for a slight policy change:
After consulting and discussing with BadBear, I've decided that it's time to let people discuss a bit more freely about services. Although BadBear's earlier posts hinted that service posts are a "no go" on most cases, after contacting him a couple of days ago, I believe he has changed his thinking, possibly due to the community's opinion and suggestions (told you it would help
).
As per this shift, the following type of posts are now allowed in coin threads:
However, said rules only apply to those posts that ARE NOT large, distracting with images, or markup codes (lots of bold and colors) and other traits of an advertisement. If a post is considered an advertisement will be determined on case by case basis.
Post your suggestions and opinions regarding this rule and how it should be improved and it might get implemented.

- Posts about block explorers. ("Here is a new block explorer for this coin" type posts)
- If a service comes up in a disussion and directly related to the coin, it's allowed
- "We're up" messages for pools (if it's only once per thread)
- "This exchange added coin" type posts for exchanges (again, if it's only once per thread)
