Reporting a post

[xmastree]

I reported a post recently, but nothing has been done about it. The post was from a user blatantly promoting his own (presumably. The forum name and ebay name are very similar) ebay auction in the absolute beginners forum.

Was I right to report it? If so, why is it still there?

Yes you were correct to report it and the thread has been jailed
