Why not?
Seriously, why make a website and be quiet about it? Just because you have seen it (apparently far too often) so many others may not have and find it interesting.
How about you consider the ol' "block user" tab and be done with it?
I'm just not interested in having another source of non-stop (undisclosed) advertising trying to appear as organic engagement and am announcing it publicly in the hopes that they either limit their use of it or to at least make others aware what the user is doing.
It would be one thing if they were announcing they own the site but it's the only place they link to and it gets shoehorned into multiple communities with calls to go visit it.
Ah, ok then. My bad, I thought it may have been just a dude with a website & not "guerilla advertising" so I stand corrected....and will go polish my pitchfork and spark up a torch
I thought I was polite in my initial request that they cut back on linking their site, I don't recall ever suggesting people collect their pitchforks and torches. Please be more dramatic :)
