If a thread lasts 10 days or so with no posts, adios!
You mean that the thread gets auto-deleted? I do not think that that is what this is about.. I think it is not about the size of PTT2.
I voted for deletion of the spam lounge, to me it says, as 44 has pointed out, spammers go ahead. Instead we should be using a zero-tolerance system, that will avoid all spamming. The spam lounge gives people the opportunity to spam, and because they think its allright they take their worthless comments out of the spam lounge and start using them on other forums.
Whose idea was this? Oh yeah, mine. I think it would be best to delete all of the spam because we have no use for it. On the old PTT the vets earned posts because of the quality not because of the quantity. I say that all the little children get rid of their spammieness and post something worth reading. That is my opinion. Spammers can leave if they do not like it.
^^CB...just because we have lots of space, does not mean we use more of it on spam! lol thanks for the update though.
The spam lounge is staying folks,, its a magnet and a landfill for spam energy that may other wise take place in serious threads. Even excessive spam,, ect... one word post or gibberish on serious threads or game threads in the spam lounge will not be without consequence. All is good not so give it a chance. Changes were made and were moving on. Like the doc said use the /ignore if you don't like to read some members post or easier yet,, don't click on it.
They bought their tickets, they knew what they were getting into. I say, let 'em crash.
Even when I made the original post, I was just highlighting an idea Smeagol tossed out there. It seemed, and still seems, like a good idea, but I'm glad we were able to actually start a decent debate over whether or not it was a good idea, rather than (at least, for the most part) flaming over it.
The majority says it should go, but the minority has some good points.
