The obvious question to me is: why is Discussion getting this spam where main LW didn't and doesn't?

I have a "ban" button on the main LW site, for use removing viagra ads and the like. I have no similar button in the discussion section. Maybe they're both receiving comparable amounts, but there's no removal mechanism here.

Anna, you were not previously a "moderator" in the discussion area. You are now.

See http://lesswrong.com/r/lesswrong/about/moderators and http://lesswrong.com/r/discussion/about/moderators for list of moderators.

Poke one of them to poke me if you think you deserve to be a moderator.

From the About page:

Users with sufficient karma (+20) can publish posts to the main site, anyone can post to the discussion araa.

(looks like there's a typo btw)
