I noticed this Wealthsimple Community pop up in my "active" list today.

Clicked in and noticed its empty, but the sidebar contains a sneaky affiliate link for the moderator of that community.

Same thing with the Wealthsimple Trade Community.

I think this sort of activity should be banned from here tbh, definitely at the mod level.

I knew the user name looked familiar. They're one of those people that post the same article to like 5 different communities. Sure the article might actually be interesting, but there's no need for it to take up literally all the room on my feed.

    I apologize if my sharing of market and stock related news articles has caused any discomfort. My only intention is to create more awareness around long-term investing and promote healthy community discussion so we can all learn from each other.
