[DENIED] Stricter advertising rules

Noticed a trend forming where people make obvious fake/self interactions to boost their clicks/trust and i think something should be done about this before it gets out of hand.

Some examples of what's going on:

1. Users faking reports against themselves to make them look professional/trusted
example:
I scammed Accountwarehouse and they sent me to collections!
An obvious self made report to make themselves look professional and make their accounts look more safe as they're "taking legal actions" against people recovering accounts from them, which is a big lie and reality is they can't do shit.

2. "I paid back xxxxx$ after user x has sent it to me by accident so u can trust me" Not saying it's all fake but after you use that vouch in every single thread to seem more trusted it just looks more than sketch.

3. "Hello i made this guide/comment, you can read it on my website and discuss it back on sythe"
Lets be honest this is nothing more than using sythe to farm clicks/advertise their websites and they're not even remotely interested in having a discussion
some obvious examples:
OSRS Staking Guide 2019
Most expensive in-game items sold

I see no problem when business owners making educational/discussion posts on the forum, but when they make a clickbait title and just post a link to their website that's just a pile of bullshit.



My suggestions:
No advertising outside market sections
Vouches can only be given for trading goods (no "trust trades"/ "giving money back")
Questionable(advertising) reports should require proof of trade, with punishment for wasting staff time if failed to provide (To "both" parties for playing along)

 

That's more of a common sense, as it's not legally possible

 

1. These types of reports are rare and the example was actually a real report (the victim contacted me independently to cry about the outcome and all proof was provided by accountwarehouse as well)

2. This is also rare and it is up to users to interpret this as a reason to trust or not

3. This we will actually be addressing. Any user with a guide thread here needs to have the guide shared on our site in the thread, they can still link their own website too
