No this isnt a spam thread. well technically it is, but then again it SOOO isnt.
We just ought to have a free-for all forum. In this forum, there would be two sub-forums, called A) The Sub Forum for the Manner of Threads Which Would Have Otherwise Been Clasified as Spam and B) The Sub Forum in Which We Discuss Topics in a Mature and Civilized Manner by Bashing the Poster Not the Idea.
My idea for this stems from the fact that i see what are interpereted as spam threads or posts all over this site all the time and I'm sure it gives the mods a real headache to hunt down, close, move warn, what-have-you. Also, people seem to find it easier to beat the living cyber-crap out of each other, especially in OT ( the bloody DIE PERFECTION picture comes to mind). Well, if we had our own forum for this, then you wouldnt have to close the spam/abuse threads, you could just move them. Unless, of course, it is still sufficiently salvagable, then do with it what you will. The point is, that there is a time and a place for everything, so if we had such a forum there would be a place for it. Imagine, once the forum gets up and running, how much easier it will be to patrol the other forums! This new one would probably require a mod or two, to make sure that the material and converstations in this new forum were sufficiently abusive and or off topic, else they need be warned and have the thread moved. I know it seems like a renewal of the old work we'd be getting rid of with the creation of the new forum and all, but its really not. In fact, it's much easier, since now its realy just two mods who have to guard against not spamming or abusing, which is going to be much less common in a fourm made for such activities.
Of course, the abuse forum, aka The Sub Forum in Which We Discuss Topics in a Mature and Civilized Manner by Bashing the Poster Not the Idea would be much like the OT is now, but it would be allowed to evolve as the conversation/argument/slugfest carries on.
The need for this new forum and sub-forums is apparent. I believe CFC requires a place for such nonsense i mean creative expansion of the capabilites of one's language comprehension to take place. In the least, it would be a source of entertainment for the mods and users.
The only question that remains is: who amongst us is most capabe of tackling the inexorabe march of the spammers and abusers as a moderator?
