I've been here for about a month already and i only have 100 posts. But mainly comment and rarely start a thread. Does that make me a spammer? I wouldn't say so. I'd say it's contributing. Obviously if someone joined the forum and flew to i dunno 57 posts in a day, you could deem them as a spammer.
Also people can get caught up with spam. For instance a lq spammer comments on an old thread. A HQ member doesn't realize it's an old thread, it's just been bumped to the top. So he comments on it. Would he be a spammer?
Anyways IMO the forum isn't being spammed to bad. The only thing is, is updates. I made a thread in suggestions about changing the favicon, i don't even think Omni commented back on it. And people thought changing the favicon was a good idea. And it'd only take a sec or so. So Omni is either just lazy, or is neglecting this forum. Both are bad.
Go and take a look at the 500+ members of whom get 100 posts within a day. If you've taken notice to the forum you would realize there is a spam problem, even Omni himself is admitting it, but problems take time to be resolved, and time, unfortunately, is something Omni hasn't got.

Removed inactive staff
Made a new group
Replying to peoples threads
All of which I haven't see before in my time here.
Agreed.
The whole point of this thread was AIMED at Omni, not for discussion on the subject. I don't want to PM him as I'm sure he gets overrun, that's why I made a post, it's always here and he can reply when he wants.
Anyway this thread is for Omni to discuss this and for us to suggest things to him, not to argue about the spamming issue, just to observe the outcome.
