I would love to hear some suggestions on how to make this fair for everyone.

1. Give negative ratings to spammers (for at least a month)
2. Upon reviewing their newly created posts (after a month):
a. If they improve, a neutral should be given.
b. If there's no significant improvement, then the rating should stay permanently (if someone doesn't take the second chance that will be given to them (in order to improve), they certainly don't deserve to be allowed to post or rather earn through posting).

I have also seen some suggestions that sounded good like drop a red for a week and if they clean it up remove the red and leave a neutral.

Can you clarify the highlighted part? Is it what "LoyceV have said earlier" or you meant to give them a chance (after giving the negative rating for a week) and review their posts (after a week) and if they had a significant improvement, then a neutral is given? If it's the latter, then a week is too soon. A period of a month should be mandatory (majority won't improve significantly in a single week).

Maybe I was wrong to add people to fight spam?

No, you were not. This should've been done a year ago.

On every profile, besides Trust, there's an option to mark user as spammer
This instantly makes that user's signature invisible for the user who marked him, or add him into the ignore list, to be decided
If the user who marked him is on DT1 or DT2; staff; or any other list to be decided, then the marked user losses the right to wear a signature. This way, it's not up to signature managers to allow them into a campaign or not. The forum would disable the signature for him

Best idea so far. I'd like to modify it a bit:

At least 6 DT2 members or 3 DT1 members are needed, in order for a user to lose the ability to wear a signature (this way it will be less prone to abuse).[/list]
