Thanks for trying to find a solution.
The solution here is to use the forum like a normal user. Sharing the occasional article you wish to discuss, and contributing to the discussion, is totally fine. Throwing out a link to get people to visit your website and then abandoning the thread to spammers is not.

But I believe that neither o_e_l_e_o nor 20kevin20 is interested in finding a solution.
I had hoped that having multiple threads deleted would have been enough to alert you to the fact that you were breaking the rules. Since it obviously wasn't, I started this thread to ask for the moderators to step in with a temporary ban (which is usually 7-14 days) in the first instance. I think that is entirely fair.

I don't agree with the recent spam accusations.
That's fine if you don't agree, but plenty of other users do as you can see from this thread, the mods do as you can see from your deleted topics, and other users have been temporarily or even permanently banned for this exact kind of behavior.

They believe that exclusive content that helps users understand what's with crypto and why it's important is nothing but "irrelevant or unsolicited messages sent for the purposes of advertising".
It doesn't really matter how exclusive or otherwise the content is. The issue here is the method of delivery.
