The best way to combat spam in this forum...
Why not just ban bad behavior, and then give us the freedom to talk about whatever we please. If we were to keep more of these threads open, then we'd squeeze the spam right off of this page.
This may be just me, but whenever a thread I've spent time in gets shut down, I feel less of an urge to come back here to see what's going on. Of course maybe that's the point - But spammers never go away, so why not let us drown them out with heated discussions?
Save the muzzle and locks for mean behavior.
... anyway - place your bets here for how long this thread will last:
Just when you think you've got it all figured out, someone changes the rules.
