I can acknowledge the value which your mailing list contacts may represent to you.
But, on your side, you should also acknowledge that we have to fight against spammers on a daily basis, and that a minified link in an article does not help up in this task, at all.
I did not report your account, though, because I had the impression that indeed your intention was not spamming (plus, you are not a new user, you already have published other articles, and even won some prizes a couple of times); but, please, avoid minified links in your publications 
Kindly.

I would like to explain the links are not my company website, it's the documentation of RDO.Net, just github pages: GitHub - DevZest/RDO.Doc: RDO.Net Documentation[^]
And the RDO.Net is also open source project under MIT license: GitHub - DevZest/RDO.Net: Relational Data Objects for .Net[^]
Only the tools part is commercial (the link is microsoft website). It's not mandatory to use with RDO.Net, just like .Net Core and Visual Studio. It's pretty common when you write article about .Net, you will explain how to work with it in Visual Studio, and Visual Studio is also commercial.
Please reconsider, or let me know if I can make any change to the article. It's definitely not a spam, at least not my intention to post a spam.

The problem is that the links don't go to GitHub, they go to your site - and there are a lot of them!
If the documentation is available via github, then link directly to that, as there is no commercial aspect, and it can't be considered as site driving spam.
When you add that your profile consists of just what appears to be a company name - the same as all the links point to - and a single sentence you start to look more and more like a spammer.
I don't think you intended to spam - or at least I hope not - but we get a lot of that, and most of it is deliberate.
I'll remove the report link for the moment so you don't get kicked off, and let you repost the article, but if you could replace the "devzest" links with direct GitHub ones, that would help. Be aware that I'm far from the most "trigger happy" member here, and if it looks like spam again, the chances are you'll be kicked!

Thank you, I just reposted the article with all links replaced/removed. I also updated my profile signature. Sorry I'm a developer, not a marketing people, I didn't even know the difference between these.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Three years with no other activity - at least, none that has survived - and a dodgy sounding home page in his profile?
My vote's for "spammer". And eight others have agreed with me so far.

With a name like that, I'd guess "tester for a baba flood".
Terminate with extreme prejudice!
