When same BS line is repeated in every single day in every single page might be a give away? Especially when it derails threads/topics and takes away focus from it. Can call it spam, trolling or basic derailing, basic is the same, which is leaving little room for the purpose of said thread to happen, actually discussing anything related to player/club/topic its about (wether you are negative or positive in views doesnt matter, but the level of wtf you are posting surely does).
This forums activity level is alot offtopic silliness as it is in footie threads, to add this on daily basis on top of that simply makes it way worse, and should be obvious to notice. Colour me weird, but at the end of it, we are here because this is a football forum, dont have to be serious about it, but hampering the space to discuss it pretty much makes it moot. It gets too much when after awhile you find yourself stop checking up threads on certain players you are interested in, because you KNOW nothing of value is being said/discussed in that players thread, but instead is taken up with childish BS.
Used to not check Marchisio thread for period due to that, Del Piero thread for large periods (though there they atleast "discussed" the useless BS), and today the obvious thread that was closed, AND the IMMENSELY retarded shit I browsed through in the Verratti thread just to see if there is any update on his possible TRANSFER.
To a point cant fault the mods for these uncheckered silliness and moreso the parties involved, until as I said in previous post, it becomes just flat out spamming a thread, like it has clearly been.
P.S As I said, it gotten to the point the insanely inane Cronios posts are the ones worth reading in most of these threads

That is pretty insane.
But the problem still is how can you tell one poster's spam from another's not-spam if they are essentially posting the same thing? Are mods going to have to maintain and consult a list so that the first person who posts "fuck giovinco" doesn't get an infraction but everyone afterwards does because it's then considered "spam"?
That would be very difficult to enforce without everyone feeling it is incredibly unfair.

Feels like you are playing devils advocate a bit If it was that complicated, I would get it, but its really not, when you HAVE to close a thread, just so you can be able to post actual information/articles about the player without the thread being spammed for dozens of pages on end with the same childish IRRELEVANT nonsense, then yes its past the point about wether one should give infraction to first or not (delete/publically warn its gonna get moderated is good start too).
You (general you, mods) skipped all those measures and went with the last (easy cop-out) resort of closing the thread temporarily, which says the issue is not about wether or not if it was spammed, but it was to the point you (again general you) HAD to close it. That says something IMO.

Ironically, as this may sound like getting Al Capone on tax evasion, but all the "fuck giovinco" posts could fall under double posting infractions.
But then you'd have the trolls just waiting until someone until someone posts something on-topic so they can say it again. Where there are rules, there will always be people who abuse loopholes.
Yep, but there needs to be consistency. We can't have some mods giving infractions for insulting players and others not.
We'll come to a decision soon.

Am I too late?
