    There is no doubt that the Golden Sun community is in its final grasp. However, I suppose we can try and save it (specifically GSSF, anyway).

    Anyway, this isn't my major idea, but is it possible to place a limit on the Spam Forum? Perhaps either for each member (say a limit of five posts or something) or in general (75 a day?)...

    Just curious, since Invision Board 2 is sweet =D

      hmm, thats a good idea, but 100 posts. But also bad 'cause it may drive away members

      ure quick on uptake, most people are fed up and are deserting the community...sad isn't it.

        Thanks...

        But yeah, I mean, we should at least address the issues... instead of it fueling more members to leave...

        Anyway, my figures were simply examples. Whichever works, but it is clear that the Spam has gone out of hand (from what I can tell, yeah...)...

          Yes, it is a good idea, but not for people who post in topics that aren't Random who talk in it alot.

            But still it is a good idea to save it.

              I think a better idea would be a more frequent pruning.
              It's too complicated trying to limit EVERY member who joins or who is already here.

              Anyways, I don't know what else to propose.

                I can understand your idea, but like nick said, it's probably easier and more efficient to just prune it often.

                  I think it's even more efficiant to remove the whole damn thing permanantly, but thats just me...

                    Well that is your option. You're just telling us what are you're thoughts about it. I'm not complaining. I like the Spam Forum, we can talk about nonsense on it when we get the chance. But that's just me as well.

                      I like the spam forum, as long as topics stay on topic. I realize it's spam forum, but come one people- that's what the random thread is for.
