The reporting system is useful, but this is an additional way for you all to point out people who are abusing saidit so they can be banned.

This sub is ONLY for pointing out ads and spammers. It is NOT for pointing out people who are breaking the pyramid of debate. It's just there to help keep saidit clean from the super-obvious trash that basically no one wants here. Like Viagra ads, and "Buy air conditioners in Perth, Australia" and stuff like that. They're welcome to post in /s/ads as always (which is the main thing taken off the front page) but 99% of the ad spammers don't care to do that even after you tell them to. We've only banned about 20 so far in all the 20 months we've been open now, so it's not a huge problem, but I just want to make sure the /new feed is good to read and not filled with garbage. So I made this sub as a way to let the community help more with that.

Thanks everyone

/s/ads is also where the secret messages are communicated.
