Is There A Way To Hide The Spam Forum?

[Gruntfuggly]

I'm not slagging it off - each to his own and all that, but I use this site to keep up with GP2X stuff. I really don't want to read all the crap that's currently being posted...

Is it possible to customize 'view new posts'?

I've asked 2 of the mods this too.

Some fellow suggested making the Spam Board a private forum, and only those with a Spam Pass would be able to access it.

Good idea.

It could work in the same way we have the "xtreme team" and the guru status, where we get our own spammer logo.

This reeks of that board LUE on gamefaqs. Reeks, I tells ya!!!

I like that idea! How about something like one of these for the logo:

Not at all... Just taking credit... or something... lol
And restating my view that it should be hidden some how.

but wait if you have to be a certifided spammer wont we have people spamming other threads to use the spam thread? :huh: or am I missunderstanding and making a fool of myself?

"ach"

The pain this problem causes makes mine poor head hurt.
Here's an idea: those of us who want to be assinine can go and claim an inactive gamefaqs board. They can then be assinine all they want there, without having thier posts clutter up out new post boxes. Or we could all just be mature.

heck.. I'll even set aside a forum on my web space if it will give a nice separation between posts and inanity

 

[DemonStar55]

make it private that anyone can join as long as they have x amount of posts or something

 

[daclassicgamingmaster]

good job rico looks like the majority of members that actually use this board for gp32/gp2x related news hate the idea. Better do something quick or we'll begin to lose members and possibly coders and it'll be all your fault

I dislike it because i come here to have intelligent conversations with sane individuals, not to indulge in random acts of stupidity. If i wanted to do that, i would frequent the cyanide & happiness forums.

I couldnt agree more, but it seems as though when I voice my opinion people like rico tell me to shut up.

Well I was meaning a spam forum... I wouldn't want to even attempt to steal usefl contributions away from here ha ha.

I use and have always used the "View New Posts" feature to see what people are talking about. Before there was one single thread I could ignore. Now I have to carefully browse the list to see which forum it's in. I don't have time for this, so the end result is simply that I visit less often and read fewer threads (until I get bored about reading the shear number of spam posts, after which I'll probably just not bother to visit at all and find somewhere else)
