[QUOTE="LightPhoenix, post: 3202433, member: 115"] If I may inquire (and I'm not a mod or anything), because I don't necessarily think there is no room for improvement in the boards, what exactly do you consider spam? I know you mentioned the "me too" posts - how might you reduce those? I honestly don't have much of an idea... I suppose you could implement a minimum post size, say fifty characters or so. I'm not sure that would be fair to boards like PbP, where short posts are a little more common (dice rolls, actions, etc)... but I'm also unsure if something can be implemented on a per-board basis. I know for a while Post Count was turned off in the OT forum. Also, that's part of the reason I'm against post count. I'm not going to name names, but there are some posters I deliberately skim over because the vast majority of their posts offer little in a discussion. Post count promotes that, and there are members that have, IMO, abused that. Anyway, while a scoring system may not be in the cards, I'd like to hear a little more about what you think can be done to improve the quality of posting. [/QUOTE]
