Personally, I'd be fine with affiliate-linked posters continuing to post in regular-style threads, provided there was a mention at the top of each post before the links began that they would receive the click-through commission on (additional) purchases.
Sig-only disclaimers wouldn't work because some of us have sigs turned off.
As for authors posting "bargains" of their own books, I'd really rather all that stayed in the Self-Promo forum, because practically all of the authors who've gone and double-posted in both Self-Promo and Deals seemed to think that their $2.99 self-published backlist or 99 cent indie book was a great bargain deal that no one should miss out on, so that kind of thing would really just encourage flooding and clutter, IMHO.
Perhaps a thread in the Reading Recs forum for recommended bargain/freebie books that MR posters have read and enjoyed which just happen to be fortuitously discounted at the moment?
