I only launched my discord server a couple of months ago and i have to agree with you... the levels of spam are just insane. It would be great if more people actually had a real appreciation for the fact that managing a server and seeing to everyone's queries and requests is time consuming enough without still have to sift through all the link drop messages.

And Yes, it is also quite shocking to see the Spammy activity and behaviour of some very well established steemians.
