You misunderstood my post; I have never defined spam as posting in different sections of the forum. Re-read.
you want to spam in every part of the forum
Well they both seem the same.
The quality of the forum has definitely increased and is being maintained for the last few months and the ones who start spamming are soon reported.
I strongly disagree.
Well I can disagree with your disagreement for no reason at all, I believe you do have a reason (or stats to prove so) to disagree
it does need money to sustain the group of moderators, "pay" for the admins and the Global mods(who I believe have a higher "cut" from the ad revenue)
It doesn't really need that either, as moderators are not on any sort of 'payroll'.
Sure the first few months mods will try seeming as if they don't need the share of payments per reports they handle, then they will surely slack off as they are not getting any reward for the unthanked job that they have to do. As for the statement that mods aren't paid or more specifically aren't "on a payroll" I believe you yourself likely receive more than 0.2 BTC(a significant amount) per month, not that I'm complaining as you do deserve the share for the constant spam-handling you do
The forum might die anyway if spam continues growing like this. Even though I'm not a big fan of OgNasty's pay-for-sig proposal I would still prefer to see it die trying to do something positive than just let it drown in spam.
I don't know honestly, I haven't seem extreme cases of spam going unnoticed by the forum. IMHO, its dramatic stuff even for me
