It makes it so the spam topics are not bumped to the top and so people dont get points from spammers. its a great idea.

Hey, the spamming on Neopets (when I went there) was so much worse.

They would make a topic and break it within seconds.
It was pshyco.
This is nothing compared to that.

It's not that hard. Instead of clicking 'Add Reply,' click 'Report Post.' Then tell the moderators why the post violated LiveWire's guidlines.

Duuuuuurrrr.

were being punished for replying to spammers.  If you don't reply to them, it'll stop them from posting pretty much because they only want attention, and well, if we don't reply they'll stop spamming.

How do we know if they're really spamming or they're just being complete and utter idiots with a topic? It's hard to tell idiots from spammers =\

If someone is bumps a spam topic, delete the topic, or lock it.

People do have the right to post in topics, whether they be nonsense or not, but to spam twenty-something replies is going a little too far.

Perhaps the moderators should delete the topics faster so that they do not continue? Deliberate encouragement should be frowned upon, but a simple STFU or two can be warranted. This also allows for a lot of grey area; a lot of this is not too clear on what is a 'malicious poster' and whatnot.

Um, I'm pretty sure that if you do not reply, it will actually encourage the creation of more TOPICS.
