I am inclined to go with this view. It is not the first time our thinking patterns have aligned  Grin

Those that might feel limiting the number of daily posts on any thread or board (including gambling) will be the complete solution to the spamming problem are not quite right. Even if we forget about the gambling commentators favourite board (post prison as you called it), apply the same principle to any board or thread and by limiting the number of posts made it does limit also the number of spam posts being made but can it also have a negative impact on other posters that post more than the talked-about daily quota? I would say 'yes'.

The easiest way around the issue would be moderated threads, it is really difficult to look beyond that as an almost permanent solution.

Limiting the number of daily posts on the gambling board will not solve the problem either; that is a post prison for genuine gambling posters who enjoy posting on the gambling board - there are quite a few users who prefer post on the gambling board, and I'm one of those users; there is no better fun place than the gambling discussion board, and I post on that board on average 4-5 times per day. A daily post minimum is acceptable, but a daily post maximum will not solve anything; a shitposter can still shit his daily posts.
