You seem to have completely misunderstood my post. I'm not saying commercial posts should be allowed in c.d.o.s, I'm saying I wish you'd stop replying to them through the group as it just adds to the noise, & propogates threads that wouldn't otherwise appear on some feeds.

If you want to ask the spammers to only post to marketplace, then do so by email - that's all I'm asking.
