What are all the random "ugg" posts?

All the time, in General Support, Survival Games Disccussions (Sometimes), Feature Suggestions, and probably some other places I see random posts advertising some "ugg" thing. Are these random bots posting things or are they advertisements like the advertisements for servers and stuff? It's always on a different account, and it's just spam... Anyone know what they are, or if they will be removed eventually?

I figured, but when they keep spamming those things (and that competition thing) it doesn't sound like ugg boots.. Also, I asked if they will be removed... Because it makes me mad that they don't even spam in the right section :p

They won't be removed. It's advertisement. Just report or ignore.

They will spam everywhere. Way of life. You can start some pretty interesting discussions on them between the time you report them and they're deleted.

They can;t be removed, because XenForo need to make a way to "human check" when creating a forum account which stop these spam bots, we aren't allowing them, we just can't stop them.
