A question for the community.
I woke up to find that some developer had posted a link to their Kickstarter page in a new thread. The post was obviously a default one used in several different fora (apart from anything else, it was in English and Russian). I did what I do in the case of any spam: delete the thread, delete the user, and move on. I also reinstated the "no links for a week after creating an account", this being the third spammer this week.
But we are a games website, and there is perhaps something to be said for letting aspiring developers advertise their games for free. Did I do the right thing? Should we instead have a thread for moving game adverts into, possibly in the PC forum? Any thoughts?
