I think we should get rid of the Spam Pit. It is a pointless forum in my opinion. Recently I saw almost a whole forum page of "Nightwish rock" topic variations from Lathaon and that was it. I never really loved the idea of that spam pit, yes I agreed to have it there, but now I really think we should remove it. If it something worth saying but is not suitable anywhere else in the forums, post it in Off topic. If it is not worth saying at all, don't post it at all...

Just my opinion. Tell me what you think ;)

It's all Lathoan's fault but I agree, waste of space.

Is that a challenge? Have you not seen the Youtube footage of me? At my family New Year's Eve party, where I mercilessly chased my four year old cousin around in a drunken rage, attempted to hit him with a plastic, illuminating lightsaber whilst yelling 'Piņata, piņata!', before tripping over my own pair of slippers and falling over, crushing the fleeing juvenile as I did so? Well, neither have I.

It seems like such a simple suggestion. Remove the spam pit, just as long as it's vile denziens don't spread their filth and pestilence elsewhere on the forum.

They won't spread the spam to other parts of the community - or they will be warned or suspended.

I just think that most members here are good members and they do not need the spam pit to get it out of their system. I think so at least.

To be honest so much of offtopic was crap and at least now its semi intelligable or its in the spam pit if there is no point. I think it is better to be honest. So I say keep the spam pit.

Nah - I see your point, Andy, but the spam pit has had very few active threads. I don't know - I just think that most members are so intelligent that they do not make spam threads...

I agree. The Spam Pit served its purpose brilliantly, it removed much of the filth from the forums. Hopefully now we can take a step further and remove the spam altogether.

HIC, I demand that you bludgeon yourself with a rock until your mental status returns to the level of a rapist who calls back to apologise! Your use of elaborate language and words is making me uneasy. Although, I am somewhat relieved to see that your punctuation remains shit-based.

I'd like to see it say as I've enjoyed some of the 'disscussions' on it, lath kinda stuffed it up yesterday but overall I'd be for keeping it.
