Any time you bring to their attention that certain posts are soliciting business, you get ignored, as those business owners are paying for adverts etc.

While TA can be a great resource, it is a rort.
Same goes now for Yelp. If you own a business they remove all 4 and 5 star reviews and make you pay to show them. If you refuse to pay they will only show the worst reviews to try and blackmail you. U$A!
