Spamming

Spamming actually violates the lichess terms of service.
Under section <<Fair Play and Community Guidelines>> term 7 and 8 clearly states.

"""
See the following for some examples of what you shouldn’t do.

...

7. Abuse our infrastructure. Don’t take any action that imposes an unreasonable load on our infrastructure or on our third-party providers. We reserve the right to determine what is reasonable.

8. Spamming. Posting unsolicited messages like junk mail, chain letters, or just general spam is just frustrating for our Users, so don’t do it.
"""

Asking random people to join teams and posting links to your team on random forums are the definition of unsolicited. Be warned. Spamming and violating lichess tos can result in a ban from playing and posting on forums.
thanks for the insight......... the team thing, it's a little irritating, but i could kind of see that as ok... they're not for money, it's teams on lichess... what eats my bacon are all the coaches, especially the ones who start threads with enticing little nuggets, ending with how wonderful they are and what great coaches they are, bla bla bla bla... it's offensive, and it's misleading. and it is definitelyspam. actually, the ones who are completely lame (nabil guy) are entertaining in their ineptness.

btw, how am i talking to a wad of silicon?
