Moderation PRO-TIP Thread

Take notes:

When deleting threads of blatant advertising or referral links (i.e. number-at-end-of-urls for "cool game" and "prize") it is best to move the thread to Deleted Threads then delete it completely (including title), to remove their intended advertising effect.

Because if you don't do this, they're still advertising for free, which is what they want to do. Just no one will reply to it, but they're still advertising on the site. Such threads are:

Moddb.com
Moddb.com

These can still be read, and still be clicked. And they're still advertising.

Good day!
