Here's an idea: How about disabling post counts in Helheim? It would cut down spamming a lot by discouraging those who only spam to get a high post count (and I know there are a lot of you).

Why would it be a bad idea? This post of yours is exactly what spam is: meaningless.

Right, I was just justifying your point, by "spamming" it. :roll:

I do kinda agree with Slayer of Kings. post count's not really a good measure of anything in particular anyway..

Maybe if you let people have their own titles then they would quit trying to become Whores and Lords and such.

Well, I won't be upset or something if that happens. A lot of forums have the same policy Slayer suggested. So I think it's actually a good idea.

Who's spamming ? Give me names and I'll kill them. Nobody spams in my forum!







(good idea but I didn't think there was a spam problem here, is there ? )

Bit late. With the Guests gone spamming's not such a problem, and the increased moderation means we should be ok there. Wouldn't mind custom titles, though....

Honestly, I don't see the point. 90% of the posts here can be considered meaningless by this theory. Blatant spamming is one thing, but people shouldn't be crucified because they reply with a smiley in response to a joke or something.

I agree! perhaps post count shouldn't increment if your post contains less than a hundred characters! bwahaha!
