I get there's a lot of spam on this site but when you generally answer someone question and drop a non-affiliate link why do some replies get rejected?
Read the rules, no ref. links are allowed. There's a lot of spam, that's true but there's a button in the lower right corner of each post "report to moderator", if you see anything that does not fit the rules, feel free to hit that report link and make this place a better one.
Oh yeah, Ref links are allowed only in the signature, but to have a signature you need to either
pay or develop your account.
