Spam clean-up list

You're welcome, Slava.

By the way, what is this site's policy as regards posting advertisements in the forums?
I know that most ESL forums do not permit it unless the advertiser offers free, legal and relevant material to its forum members.

This post, for example, doesn't seem to link to anything except services that must be paid for:

And, what's more, some of the sentences in that post and on the site could use some editing.

jacksmith has now posted a duplicate of one of his other posts. The main difference is that links have been inserted. It looks like he is primarily trying to advertise a site that writes essays for people.
