That's what annoys me. I know that it might not be a huge problem, but I just thought maybe this could be reduced so that only genuine and legit services are promoted because projects and services that use such promotional methods can barely be genuine or legit.
Yes it is very annoying. But I noticed on this forum that even after they restricted newbies to some level, they still permit them to have freedom to post what they want. Also I noticed somethings that has been said for newbies to be restricted, the admin are not doing anything. You can see many newbies with loan request on the lending board. People have reported it that newbies should not be allowed to post there but nothing done till now. We should just leave some things as they are.
