This guy keeps advertising for some site. As I recall, advertising is against the rules.

http://forum.nationstates.net/search.php?keywords=&terms=all&author=Frasas&fid%5B%5D=20&sc=1&sf=all&sr=posts&sk=t&sd=d&st=0&ch=300&t=0&submit=Search

If you scroll down, you'll see half a dozen posts on the first page that are basically the same words... try this site and a link. Something about recreation.
Venicilian: wow. Jesus hung around with everyone. boys, girls, rich, poor(mostly), sick, healthy, etc. in fact, i bet he even went up to gay people and tried to heal them so they would be straight.
The Parkus Empire: Being serious on NSG is like wearing a suit to a nude beach.
New Kereptica: Since power is changed energy over time, an increase in power would mean, in this case, an increase in energy. As energy is equivalent to mass and the density of the government is static, the volume of the government must increase.

He's been told. As far as I can see, that last one was posted before he was asked to stop. If there is further spamming after today, a ban may be in order.

It's still in his sig, does this count as "advertising" or is it a permissible 3rd party sig link?

As far as I understand it, it's fine so long as it's not an Outwar-type link or he or his family members are profiting financially.

This guy spoke in the forum that he is the brother of that guy who spammed me.

I bet the spam/ad is about a political movement.
