Now that's just plain riddiculous.

I know-right. These are people who can clearly afford to support their kids.

Will every nation push a One Child policy like China?

Really? Why? I think all sports related posts should go in spam.

I just dont think this is worth a new thread...that's just my opinion.

I respect your opinion. I just happen to disagree with it. No biggie.

So what is the purpose of a Spam thread?

Take it from a guy with an unhealthy interest in internet forums: Let there be more threads. It makes for more discussion and more activity overall.

It's a good thing.

I agree, as too many interesting posts would get buried under the Spam thread.

that's not a problem, as they usually include Gaslight stuff

I'm in the "not too many threads on non-TGA stuff" camp or, rather, I think that non-TGA posts should go into certain themed threads, like 'funny photos', 'sports' etc., rather than there being new threads for stuff like this.

Any thoughts, so I can get a feel for people's preferences?
