Why not limit, or remove the Advertisement section? (Post your opinion)

I know I'm not the only person who despises the amount of effortless private-servers which are being spewed out daily, claiming to "make you re-live the 80cap times" and etc. So, my point is, why not limit the Advertisement section (I don't know how yet, I'll edit my idea into this post later) or remove it? I know there will probably be around 90% of the community disagreeing with me - But there's literally nothing useful coming from it - aside making the SRO section look active, when really, It's not. And, it'll also greatly decrease the amount of off-topic posts, members creating accounts such as "[GM]BLABLSRO" and the amount of time you waste downloading and joining countless servers only for them to be shutdown after 3 days. Another problem, is owners who have NO CLUE WHATSOEVER on how to open/run/fix a server, but still continue to do so. I know there's nothing we can do against that, but, there are some limits which can be added to prevent that.

IMO - We need some sort of system (or whatever) which only allows users to post servers which will indefinitely not shutdown after three days, and are reliable, since every time I visit that section, there's always a new section being added. I still haven't forgotten about the suggestion to limit users posting in the advertisement section (minimum join date / posts before being allowed to post a thread in there) but sadly there was no answers from the staff regarding the matter.

So, what's your opinion? How do you think we could go against useless servers being posted daily?

TLDR - A lot of crap servers being posted lately, post your opinion on how we can prevent this

Because current rules are ... "If your server is waiting for opening, we believe it won't open at all - CLOSE"

I think that one of the mods could start a sticky thread in which the currently best servers could be highlighted.

For example one could add servers with more than at least *** members in there, including a small description of the main server features so that players looking for a server have a great overview of what's out there at the moment.

Of course this thread would require an active mod who refreshs the thread once per week or so.

Again, I would happily do this, but what's the point of going through all this effort is users still continue to post threads daily looking for servers

We HAD indeed...

OT: Not to be a ****, but isn't this topic unsuccesfully discussed several times? /// I think the idea of Dimka is pretty good though.

It has indeed, but this time, if anyone flames, I'll kindly ask it for the post(s) to be removed instead of closing the thread

Maybe guardians of a specific section (For example, this section) should have the ability to AND ONLY check unapproved threads the section which they are appointed to and check the Advertisement threads, and approve / disapprove them. Will save moderators a lot of work.
