Threads in General Marketing- Am I wrong?

    More and more these days, I have begun to see many threads in the general marketing area which are just threads containing items for sale. Wouldn't these threads belong in the buyselltrade forum rather than being in the general marketing. In my opinion this forum this forum should be for sharing FREE & quality information, and people who are interesting in stealing, i mean borrowing..., our money should post it in the buyselltrade forum where their are tons and tons of sub-forums to put your thread in the correct spot, and in general marketing actually try to help people or post correct information.

    Here are some threads I've seen in general marketing that I think shouldn't be here.
    1) http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=2429932
    2) http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=2429945
    3) http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=2429195

    So can anyone tell me if I'm right that these threads shouldn't be here, or if I'm just wrong. Thanks.

    How about report the threads and avoid replying to these spam/wrong section threads.

    This is the moderators job to handle these threads. I report a few but not going to reply and be a backseat moderator.

    You're right. Some people just think that it's an easy way to generate more interest in their product/service/site since this forum is frequently visited by both members and visitors.
