Nobody asked you for your trite mini-screed.
1. What you call a self-promoter may or may not be one; your mere accusation certainly has no credibility.
2. Such do not “need” to be discouraged. You may feel a compulsive, obsessive need to discourage them, but that is your problem.
Instead of leaving a thread to those of us who want to address the actual topic, you high-jack the thread to promote yourself with off-topic, and often vulgar, sometimes genuinely obscene, trollery.
This was in “General/Chat”; it was not listed as news, as far as I can tell - which, if so, would make you also a liar.
I moved it to chat.
