[Xbox] Re:Some people are going to be removed from the list....

Strongly agree - the few links allowed are not just relevant, but
also informative and timesaving - they absolutely aren't
advertisements. But the thing I like best about the group is that
spammers are shot first (just ahead of the whiners), then shot again
just to be sure.

I don't like the implication from this guy that the group endorses
advertisments or spam in the messages.
