No Solicitors
Remember those little NO SOLICITORS signs that people had on their doors? Maybe that was just a relic of 80's and 90's Chicago, but no matter. Heads up, everyone. Let's pretend there's a little NO SOLICITORS sign on this website. That means that there are no stupid posts about "8 great ways to do some stupid shit" followed by a link to some pathetic website. If you want to piggyback off of WSO's success to drive traffic to your site, that's a fine idea and a time honored tradition - it's called advertising, bitch. Pony up and buy some space and you can trumpet your website all you want.
Totally agree. I have deleted or locked posts that were just advertisements. You wanna sell stuff, pay up!
Just a quick shout out to my new website. It lets you find stuff on the internet in the most efficient manner.

thanks.
has anyone else realized that every single "resume help" post is a form posting done by a brand new WSO member on that dumb and virtually unused rezume site? WSO should filter those out
Yep, its annoying, I delete those posts when I see them.
The reason resume postings are all by brand-new posters is because people don't want the usernames they typically use to be affiliated with their resumes, so they make new accounts. This is to make it tougher to piece together their real identity, and embarrassing things they've said can't be affiliated with their real identity.
Razume is used because it accomplishes its purpose, and people have seen others use it.
Haha great post coffeebean. I agree with the above posters, if you are trying to peddle your website (especially one that is a crappy version of what WSO already offers) get off the site. People like gottamentor.com are fine because they actually provide useful advice and just have the link in their footer.
Silver banana just for starting this topic and finally calling these people out. This soliciting stuff is starting to get out of control and very annoying, I was thinking of starting a topic like this myself. Good job @ op.
