I know there is a freedom that's why it's forum and as a result, scam is not moderated but I have seen a case where forum member was off-limit from development and technical discussions and Bitcoin technical support for spreading negative information about bitcoin plus the user was also tagged. If 1xbit is known for unsatisfactory in their services and pocketing players money, that is enough to justify the ban if they continue to advertise and displayed banners in the forum.

These are two completely different situations. For one thing, it is much easier to prove that someone is spreading false information about Bitcoin than to prove that a casino is really scamming its players. Don't get me wrong, I believe 1xbit is an obvious example of a scam casino, but it's hard to prove without a doubt without information they won't share. Secondly, this is the
BitcoinTalk.org forum, so the main emphasis is on Bitcoin discussions and spreading information about Bitcoin and related technologies. Besides, advertising is only a secondary feature of the forum, and each member can choose to ignore certain members or disable signature advertising altogether.
