Can you do that for my account.  I have been posting for a week now and my 70 post rating hasn't budged even by 1. I'm pretty new here but I have been very active and about 2 weeks ago I had some family issues and couldn't post for about 10 days.  I got knocked down to 70 from nearly 400.  I was nearly a hero member.

This is a good idea but people who earned certain priviledges like starting a new thread should'd be stripped of everything just Cause they can't post everyday.  Losing your crown, your title of Hero should be enough.  It's hard because it stifles communication, and blogs like this are all about communicating and getting rid of spammer is all about increasing productive communication and this new rule kind of gets rid of the bathwater, baby and the tub.  

It's like cutting off the arm to get rid of an annoying splinter.  It's bad for bitcointalk just as much as the spammers it tried to get rid of. You don't want to lose your good, dedicated posters who simply can't post on a daily basis.  

For example, I want to discuss starting a CatholicCoin right now, but I can't because everyone gets offended if I bring it up in their thread.  So who knows how long I have to wait now.  Imagine thousands of guys in my position, this new rule inhibits progress and open communication so something needs to be added to get rid of spammers while empowering the users who earned their priviledges.  

Thanks.
