Title: Stupid board event idea....
Post by: Ryan on December 02, 2007, 01:52:53 pm
Alright, i was reading a thread: "They threw themselves into the sea of spam without fear" Or something like that.

What if, for a specified time, we created 2 extra forums and give all members who wanted to participate admin acess to those forums. Half could be admins to one, the other half admins to the other.

The goal: To spam the other sides forums while banning members who spam yours. Say a member posts 3 threads in your forum, you have to ban him as quickly as you can while still posting in there forums. after a specified time, or after an entire forum has had all there members banned, the forum with the most posts in the looser.

Then we just delete the extra forums, revoke the members admin rights, unban the members, post count and all is back to normal.

What do you think?

Mobius knows, Ryan. I believe he participated in it. :P

EDIT -
Would like to say I agree with Karajorma on this one. I don't need help spamming.

Let's not do that.

You lot spam enough as it is without allowing you to get more practice.
