Yes, he did ask people to buy it:gyre wrote:Well, they didn't actually ask anyone here to buy it.
And it doesn't sound like a commercial venture either.
It doesn't have to be "a commercial venture", private sales and rentals are forbidden here. Tickets being the exception. Bartered rideshares and camping arrangements slide if negotiated off eplaya, as do buying goods together.Post subject: 6' stretch hexayurt for sale
That's why the guy who wants a roommate thinks I am treating him badly, he doesn't see it as commerce. But burner or no, it falls into the realm of What is Not Allowed. This is not a democratic process here. Never has been.

Looks like someone in a really poor country is getting paid a few pennies a post to try to make a fake answer for the topic, then insert the spam. It's not a machine, unless they're a lot smarter in reading the threads than we expect.AntiM wrote:Thanks. Makes you wonder, huh?
It's probably all someone does all day.

Can't tell if this would count as commerce or not. The link in his profile seems to just go to a site of family photo's, not a commercial site.
