What I get out of all this is that we're expected to surpress our personalities so we can all become robots. While I agree that total outright spamming should be closed, basic sillyness shouldn't be. It seems like theres more of it now because the forums are so much bigger than they were before. But if you'll check, you see that it's because of the recent influx of newbies. Soon they will get tired, simper off, and it will be the same 20 or so people that always post. The regulars fit the match of regulations when it comes to spam. It seems they do it just the right amount. It's when all the new people come in that the balance gets thrown off whack. It seems that about 1/25 newbies stay at the forums more than a month and then even less of those people stay for an extended period of time. After the fallout period most of the threads will have good info and them and the basic sillyness that isn't out of hand.
