..if the forums don't get into order sooner or later.

Every day, more and more people are spamming.

More and more people are ruining threads.

More and more people are becoming Gaheadga w/o the humor.

I have spammed in the past.

I may still let a few posts of spam slip out through my fingers.

But I don't spam like an idiot like the majority of posters on BF do now.

BF used to be a place I could come to talk and relate with other forum members.

It used to be cool.

Now a days people are doing their best to ruin every last thread.

They are even making their own spam threads.

Each new member we get seems to now contribute to the spam.

With all of the current posters spamming ( at least a good majority of them), the new members see this and think it is ok, that it is acceptable, and they too begin to spam.

I just can't take the poor quality of posts/threads anymore.

If something, anything at all isn't done about it soon, I am going to leave.

What are your views on this matter?

Silent Templar: Asylum Judicators need to come back, and need to smack some of the bitches in the asylum around, and they need to put mods that actually give a shit in some forums again

True about the mods.

I have seen mods that don't even give a shit about their sections anymore.

As for Judicators: People won't listen, they will just spam until banned.

-.- Don't leave, you're Mr. Clean the old Chit-Chat mod. If you leave I'll throw rotten bologna in your path which we do to newbs... (sry to ryanxwing) Don't leave, you're too good for that. If you leave then you'd be like all of the rest... Good members who make a stupid choice and leave. :(

If you honestly think you are cool or funny, you're sadly mistaken.

People did that when they were here, and they just banned them.

Well, I agree with you vizjereimage, I understand how you feel, I rarely post in the asylum anymore because they are bullshit threads such as Callout threads and lame I ahte you newbs I am gone. The quality needs to be raised a bar or two that way we can have it the way it was when I arrived here in june...

I couldn't agree more about the need for judicators again. The asylum is almost like a second void now. If we bring judicators back and the spamming continues, good, ban a couple of them and see how that fixes things.

It's ok though, the admins are too retarded to bring judis back, let alone do anything around here.

Granted; They did try to archive and **** the place up, and they are working to fix that. Guess people are just abusing the fact that they are too busy getting all the threads back to care about some spamming...

You know it gets hell lot annoying when you have to split the thread like every 5 minutes.

and we already have 2 spam posts in this thread, pretty ironic dont you think?

Viz, I agree with you on this matter, but we cant fix this problem because new members are like 10 years old.

Time will heal, they will learn the word spam and try not to do it in the future.

Well, it is full fo spam, and some mods aren't helping much.

We need to get BF back in order again, but like you said, most of the new people coming in are 10 year olds.

ProXie, Viz used to be a C-C mod and he did fine. We used to have mods in The Asylum called Judicators that basically kept it 100% spam free, and would ban people after a warning or two about the spam. I don't see how it's that hard to occasionally pop your head in a few threads that HAVE BEEN REPORTED and see whats going down.
