Dec 11, 2010 at 11:30 comment added Gilles 'SO- stop being evil' @Daniel: I think the intent is to apply to all self-promotion, whether directly of products or indirectly through a site that promotes the product. But if you'd like an official clarification, ask on the main Stack Exchange Meta. Blogs have been discussed before, but I think not this specific aspect.
Dec 11, 2010 at 6:44 comment added Daniel Beck Mod Can I consider this rule to apply to promotion of the company blog or website (second point in my post above) as well? The FAQ only mentions products. See the post I linked to above.
Dec 9, 2010 at 18:09 comment added Gilles 'SO- stop being evil' @KronoS, @Daniel: Don't downvote for this reason, downvoting is for unhelpful replies (wrong, off-topic, etc.). The FAQ is policy. If you're pretty sure the post is violating the policy, flag it as spam. If you're not sure, or if you notice a repeat offender, you can flag the post for moderator attention. If the post if from a relatively new user who might be unaware of the policy, leave a comment pointing them to the policy.
Dec 9, 2010 at 17:28 comment added James Mertz @DanialBeck Downvote is my first action, unless i can see that the product is worthwhile, then edit. If the person seems to be spamming, then flag.
Dec 8, 2010 at 5:38 comment added Daniel Beck Mod Thanks, I must have been blind. Anyway, what's the preferred action when one encounters such a (helpful) reply? Flag? comment? Maybe even edit?
