Someone made a post that is at least irrelevant to [email protected] and is asking people to pay money for their ebook, which would be considered unsolicited advertising, i.e. spam.

edit: If you want to appoint me as mod, that's fine, then I'll take care of it.

I removed the post from [email protected]. Though I have not banned the user or removed their other posts. At least not yet. Their repeated requests for ko-fi donations does look spammy, but they do link to free copies to their writing. In the post you referenced there's a Google Docs link to the book farther down. I'm not sure if the user is only here to panhandle or if they are just tone-deaf.

I volunteer ~~as tribute~~ to be mod of [email protected]

Sure thing. You are the mod now. The old mod appears to be long gone.
