And that's all I was after, seeing as how we didn't have a great solution to avoid or prevent spammers for a LONG time here.
"Every forum has spammers" -- I believe this is an attempt to avoid the fact though that the spammers on this particular forum are created though by something that was intentionally added here though. Other forums don't have things that create spammers like SF does, because it's definitely something that forum owners want to avoid. But that is fine, to each their own in terms of a forum. But if you do have something that you know generates spammers, there should be prevention methods set in place to allow whatever it is that generates spammers, while getting rid of that "spammer" factor.
There's always going to be HF members though that don't care one bit about SF. So whether they know that their posts are slightly lacking in effort put towards the wordage before hitting that post button, it doesn't matter. As long as they get an award in the near future.
Nonetheless, it's good to see finally, some preventatives though that can reduce spamming here if Omni insists on keeping that award though.
