Implementing changes is down to the admins not mods so BadBear and theymos are the only people with any weight for change regarding this matter.
Else you'll get things like the forum's advertising thread still smashed under 500 domain topics.
Maybe, but maybe theymos could sticky the advertising slot thread.
True, but then anyone else selling legitimate digital goods (including some of my stuff even if it is low traffic) would still be back to square 1. The problem isn't being caused by digital goods, its being caused by
domains and so you can nip the problem entirely in the bud with a
domains subforum.
Another viewpoint is there are 100s of platforms specifically designed to auction domain names on, and there appears to be zero interest from anyone on here actually buying them. People are creating these domain threads because they're a free way to advertise.
