YoBit is one of the shadiest crypto exchanges, there is no doubt about that considering the number of reported cases in this forum only. Although this is the indirect advertising of YoBit via some new forum, fact is that payment is done over YoBit, the same as the candidate application without any checking.
Personally, I was surprised by this sudden turn from yahoo62278 to support YoBit in their efforts to advertise on this forum. The reason for this is the attitude of most forum members toward YoBit as shady/scam exchange, making blacklist with users who promote them and even tag them for doing that. So how is it possible that now the main problem is only "how to handle spam", and not how to protect users of this forum to not be scammed by YoBit?
The forum doesn't moderate scams and will certainly not ban Yobit (or Livecoin) from advertising here due to being scam exchanges. The first Yobit campaign was banned not because the exchange is a scam but because it filled the forum with spam. We can either let them do it again and hope that theymos will bother to blacklist this new sig, or try to control it with tools available to us (mod reports, and reporting to yahoo62278).
I would prefer the campaign to not exist but that doesn't appear to be a viable scenario. Let's say the URL gets blacklisted - there is nothing stopping them from coming back with a dummy domain redirect or a URL shortener. They have already shown that they can run the campaign completely off site if they wanted to, and that there is no lack of suckers wanting to earn $1-2 per post. Having a quality control person (which is what yahoo62278 essentially does, not really "managing" it) is better than not having one.
Tagging users for wearing a signature pointing to a forum is too much IMO. It doesn't even link to the actual exchange.
