Why is this not spam, why is this not locked?

spam?

promoting his "company"


I PM'd the mod of O8, MS, and RB about this, but never got a response. I think my inbox was full for a day, but it was clear after I sent the last two PM's.

In sum, this OP posts his link in nearly every thread he posts, and it's a knock-off kind of card runners site where he's on the front page as an LO8 specialist.

What bothers me about this is the following:

OP creates a post in LO8 that is uber LC, in an obvious effort to increase traffic to his own personal site.

OP does not contribute to the forums. He doesn't post hands or offer strat advice.

It appears he created an account on 2p2 simply for free advertising.

I flamed him in the first thread above, and the other regulars in the LO8 forum agreed with me that his post was nothing more than free advertising and spam. He offered no discussion, and seemingly never has.

Why aren't threads like this locked?

BTW, when I saw the thread I hit the 'notify moderator' button, but it said the mod had already been notified, meaning iirc 2 other members had already hit it. It would be nice if someone could chime in as to why this is allowed, or clear out the spam.


edited to add: he sells videos on his site, in case that wasn't clear.
