Default STOP THE SPAM

I've personally tried to be what I consider to be reasonable with regards to the lot of spam that we have here kindly given to us by the regulars; I've noticed that other moderators/admins have done the same. James and I have also warned against spamming threads of a serious nature (BTW, thanks James, your reminders have helped me avoid spamming) and yet many of the members have only increased the amount of spamming in these threads.

To see what I am talking about, just visit this thread. It was taken out of this thread, which was a request for help. If you are not going help out with the problem posed, do not post. Not all of the posts in the thread composed of spam are necessarily bad, but they weren't helpful to the topic, either. Ten useless posts in less than 27 hours; if only the word ridiculous could describe it.

Certain members of this have repeatedly made remarks as to how few regulars are left. I'm surprised that it isn't obvious why.

EDIT://BTW, don't spam in this thread, either. It's not cute, and it will only show your maturity, or lack there of. Also, it will point out a lack of creativity in your humor (yes, that means you aren't being original when copying an age old response).
