Not an answer, but for completeness, here's the full comment thread connected to an [answer](https://superuser.com/questions/182110/how-to-reset-outlook-2007-to-access-email-links/266864#266864) where Daniel Beck and I had an initial discussion, before this meta question was posted. (Note that I will now clean most of the comments from the post, they just add unnecessary noise to that thread, and they aren't really that relevant outside this post now anyway). >@thims, if you're going to only post answers that link to the same software each time, and without bothering to go in to more depth, then you make it look suspiciously like you're an advertiser/spammer. Please try to improve the quality and diversity of your answers as well, otherwise we may have to disable or remove your account if this spam-like behaviour continues. And remember, if you're affiliated with the software, you must make sure you make this clear in your posts (as per the FAQ, and even then we still expect them to be of high quality. > **– DMA57361♦** [2011-04-05 12:58:19Z] > @DMA57361, thank you for your comment on this. I edited my answers by making clear that I'm one of ReliefJet Essentials for Outlook developers. > **– thims** [2011-04-05 14:05:54Z] > @DMA Linking to a specific anchor (about the specific functionality desired in this topic) on a product web page is far better than most other software-recs on this site and can easily be considered "high quality". > **– Daniel Beck** [2011-04-05 17:00:03Z] > @Daniel this is true, which is why I gave a warning. However, 5 or 6 more posts advertising only their own product in the space of a few hours has led to another ♦ activating a short suspension in my absence, which I think is warranted. > **– DMA57361♦** [2011-04-05 18:53:13Z] > @DMA His product is a valid answer for every topic he posted it in, as far as I can tell. While he primarily advertises, he has one upvoted answer that is about Outlook in general. I don't see an issue here -- the answers are relevant, on-topic, useful and he discloses his association (after being told the rules, but we're used to it…). Granted, it's a bit one-sided, but everyone posts what he knows, and as Outlook addon developer, he knows Outlook intimately. Similar issue as with lobbyists in politics -- you probably shouldn't judge the content based of affiliation alone. > **– Daniel Beck** [2011-04-05 19:14:55Z] > @Daniel, SU isn't a free advertising opportunity for companies to use to push their products across. And I just don't think these are quality answers (personally I dislike most "use program X" answers regardless of affiliations - they just don't bring much info to the table). And please, If you feel the need to discuss this further could you raise it on meta, as a comment thread is hardly the right place for this (and if you do raise this on meta let me know so we can clean down this comment thread a bit). > **– DMA57361♦** [2011-04-05 19:37:00Z] > @DMA It's on meta. Feel free to edit, I'm quite tired and have no idea if the topic actually makes any sense at all. > **– Daniel Beck** [2011-04-06 20:58:51Z]
