Maybe they can make a bot-mod to automatically move these generic topics in trashcan? I think it is of demand in sections where spamming is happening mostly. As far as I know, only Beginners & Help section has this but I'm not sure if that bot is also trashing useless topics.
Anything automated could become a problem and have legitimate threads being trashed.
It's been suggested before to exclude certain boards from counting as Activity.
The
Newbie you're talking about has an account older than mine, 18 Posts, and created 16 topics!
I'm not against allowing Newbies to create new topics, but there should be a limit. All of his 16 topics are useless, and apparently creating a topic is easier to spam than posting in a thread. This way, his shitposts can't be offtopic, even though topics like that have been created countless times already.
Another beauty:
How and where do you purchase iota?
One spammer creates a thread, countless other spammers gladly "reply" and spam more.
I'd say hopper28755 should just be nuked.
Although it's been discussed to not count towards activity I don't think that would affect the threads which are being mentioned here as they would likely be in the alt coin discussion which is one of the most popular boards.
