That would actually help. Have all spambots post in one thread, which then can be removed much more easily than dozens of one-post adthreads.

It genuinely fills me with fear. A wave that large could completely tank the forum: Each deleted thread does a little damage to the structural stability of the forum. The longer the deleted thread is, the harder on the forum. A wave of that magnitude could easily drown us all in a sea of spam, and then damn us to emptiness as the forum goes down due to Toady's deletions,

Why do people even register accounts just to never post?
Also here I am to contribute to the amount of people with hundreds, if not thousands of posts in this thread.

If we're here to provide an example to the 0-post members, look at me! I possess over 9000 20000 posts to my name!
Admittedly the fact that my social life is long dead has something to do with that, but still.

I remain adamant that I still have the highest post count overall without resorting to performance enhancing threads. RTD should be banned from the sport.

I still remain envious of Jifodus' inhumanly high login time, despite the very low post count.

All of FG&RP, really. Freeform RP inflates your ppd far more than RTDs.

Knowing Belgium, everyone will vote for themselves out of mistrust for anyone else, and some kind of weird direct democracy coalition will need to be formed from 11 million or so individuals.
