Does it not annoy people on here that many first posts are classified ads? People are just using the site for sales only. I know theres no law against it but if someones been using the site for a while at least you have an element of trust (I know no one knows them either but you know what I mean) with them.

    I ignore 'em myself, like most adverts. I suppose if the only thing you ever post on the forum is an advert (especially if it's for a phone!) it counts as forum spam, but just let the admins deal with it.
    Even if the voices aren't real, they have some very good ideas.

    Any site is going to be hit by this spam eventually, especially at weekends when moderation is less likely.

    An unfortunate sign of the times.

    If you are unhappy - Flag it and ignore.
