I have already read an almost identical statement several times, which only confirms that some people just give up before others (including you). Such statements only make the situation worse by letting others know that they should leave that board to spammers - because if LoyceV says something is a lost cause, then there is no point in arguing.
It's the internet, you can always argue 
I'd love to see that board cleaned up though, and if theymos would give me a Delete button, I'd take on the challenge.
