Lock the thread; create a self-moderated thread

It's impossible for everyone to start creating self-moderated threads and you can't force people to do it, if they simply don't want to do the moderating job.
You can have many threads like this but this won't change a thing if creator is not active and deleting stuff all the time.
This can have more negative sides with many members avoiding to write in self-moderated topics.

Only shitposters would avoid writing in a self-moderated thread, and I never forced anyone to do so; I only offered a solution that would reduce spam to a bare minimum; isn't that worth a shot?

A new thread should be created at the beginning of every season. Old thread locked.

This would only create more spam, and it's just bandage solution that fixes nothing.
Creators of many topics are not active members so that would create a mess of many duplicate topics in forum.

how do a locked thread create more spams? Do you read before you write? I doubt.

Will a neutral tag with a bold message to these users be sufficient to send a signal to sig managers?

Good managers are not blind and they can see who the spammers are.
You can report all post you consider to be spam, that is how you can improve the forum.

Why is there a "Report to moderator" button when they are not blind? The moderators cant start looking for spam posts on their own; they still need the assistance of the community. The same applies to managers; it is impossible to keep track of all their participants; they are not blind, but there is no harm in assisting them. They can't see everything on their own.

I do not buy the idea of self moderating the topics or locking the threads. The threads give me the idea of how long the forum has been. When I'm less busy I do visit page 5, 6, 20, etc of those 1000+ pages to read what happened then and have fun. I don't wish it should be locked

You can also have access to a locked topic content, I don't know there your misunderstanding is coming from!
