Nonononono.... I'm not talking about a mod that would delete posts, sheesh! Geez guys, you got me all wrong!
I'm talking about a mod that would make it so admin could choose forum(s) that when people posted in they would not increase their post count. So you could post a smiley only, or a huge rant, and you post count wouldn't increase.
This would weed out some of the more extreme spammers. And don't say "they'd just move to other forums", the other forums have to be generally on topic, so any rubbish would be deleted anyway.
I think this is a good idea, as a "safeguard". It's not the restrictive idea you all seem to think it is
