I removed that members many duplicate photos. I don't see how they qualify as a commercial post? Yes they have a website area on the profile for linking to their site which they have the right to do, otherwise why even have the field? They posted a trip report as well. However once we start seeing company logos, content with commercial interest, and of course bad forum posts, that's when the line is drawn. But if you have some evidence of why they should be reported, we'd like to hear.

This guy posted a link to an online graphic novel he writes. It actually does seem to pertain to mountaineering and it's not obvious that he gets money from it - perhaps we can cut him some slack?

So by this reasoning, someone, let's say Candy for example, who has mountain pictures posted but is trying to sell you a turbocharger, qualifies to have their profile remain intact?
