Clever scammers will create the self-moderated thread from the beginning ? wouldn't they ? We cannot stop them in the first place.
Also this does not means if anyone create self-moderated thread for a service / ANN , then his motive behind is to scam.
Newbie scammers or stupid scammers don't know the self-moderated option or they forgot to activate it. The hidden option somewhat help to fight against scammers.
The right usecase of self-moderated option is emphasized so clearly by theymos, who created that option for us. I don't argue with you on that.
