Usenet is also not an advertising medium. Google "Advertising on
Usenet" and you'll see very similar documents. Here is just one.
Very true -- HOWEVER, the original question was, "do we discourage ads?" and the correct answer to that question is that there is no effective way to do that.
True but the comment I was referring to was, "This is an unmoderated
Usenet newsgroup, and there is no real way of prohibiting anything."
Encouraging offenders to read the rules of netettique, reporting
spammers and replying to ads (while at the same time removing the
links included in them) requesting the poster understand Usenet, is
actually, very effective. It's why this and some other groups are not
innundated with ads.
Not to mention making it known that we do not do business with spammers, no matter how much better their product might be, or how good their prices. It's a principle.
