But, I will not call this is innovative because they are simply copying those ugly methods. I am sure there had been other businesses/services which already attempted this kind of methodology to promote across this forum. If I remember correctly, fastdice was the one who bought high rank forum accounts to promote themselves by 2015 or around.

You are able to spot those things because they are new topics by newbies but I am sure there should be other accounts who might be spamming across the forum by including above exchange names in replies of existing topics started by other people. I could recall a scenarios where some high rank accounts (above newbie accounts) do mix up some casino name in their each and every post in gambling discussion sub and that continued for considerable amount of time as well (not sure that they stopped themselves or mods took action).

Overall, always some affiliate do spam here on their business somehow. Obviously they are misusing this forum but by not violating any forum rules which is the reason they are enjoying their longer stay.
