a bit too much spam in the Frontroom ?

[Quietus]

I agree, the spamming is getting way out of hand. In one day the Frontroom got to almost three pages of new/active threads, this had never happened in all of my relatively limited experience here at the Org. Banning spammers such as Drisos and allowing only a couple of threads like the One Word Story thread should help, but I can see no other way to stop Drisos because all he seems to do is make increasingly pointless polls and threads.

First of all, drisos is a good contributor here in the forum. You only need to talk to the guy to reduce the number of polls and he'll listen.

The same can be said to Umeu and Craterus. (These guys are regular contributors here in the forum as well. In the EH (greeting new members), Coloseum (helping others), Campus Martius, Mead Hall, etc.)

What happened yesterday with PLK was an isolated incident since the guy doesn't regularly post in the frontroom as the others.

Prompted by events during my absence, I'm am now going to pursue this program ruthlessly So stop spamming. Please.

BKS, just a suggestion. Maybe tone down the wording. Instead of 'pursue this program ruthlessly', it could be:

"Prompted by increased spamming in the Frontroom, this new spam policy will be enforced accordingly. Please limit spam threads ".

'Speak softly and carry a big stick' as Teddy Roosevelt and Bugs Bunny would say.
