Spamming not

The savings would be pretty minimal, and would remove around 30 posts by you spamming this...
really?
Because not all guild members subscribe to their private forums. In fact, not all guild leaders do to their own guild forums

Meta-gaming isn't for everyone, however they do check in here and keep in touch as to what's going on every now and again. It's a good forum for recruiting and new player inquiry.
Also, private guild forums are exclusive to those outside membership. Inter-guild relations can be discussed more properly here.
I know better than to keep the donation box ignored anyhow. Don't worry.
Well according to the above statement then if I was a IO player returning to seek adventure in my formal guild and follow up on the forums to see how my follow mates were doing I could not, since it is password protected.
Meta-gaming isn't for everyone
Any DM or some developers tell you I never meta game is full of crud, every guilds does in which you are part of Clad, Tss, etc.....
I mean you can hate or like me or just push me aside, I am still gonna sleep good tonight but understand these guild forums as along with every content on this forum due cost money. My point was not really the money but the lack of forth right material to recruit new members. But, hey here we are recycling players and content with it.

You should also consider that web-dev is one of the shorter resources available here at NS. If you remember, there were issues in the past with the forums, merging and moving and other things. It's better to just leave the forum alone than to start pruning forums, deleting crap and possibly breaking things. I don't think anyone really wants to try to fix a broken forum around here, so why even take the chance for something as trivial as this? We use what we got, and it works fine.

I've had everything that willow posts blocked for years now and his posts are still annoying.
Can we ban people for being annoying?

try the io board now...i'm pretty sure what happened is that when we allowed guild leaders control over their forums as mod one of those guys pswrd'd it...then left and didnt' tell any of the new guys. we have douchey players like that.
although in reality we could give the guild leaders their mod powers to lock their own forums so opposing factions can't see what they posted, would be the same thing. bad thing is, everyone is in everyone elses guild so the pswrd would get around.

lol, I didn't know they could do that, but if they are locked out, it's trivial to unlock or reset the password.

It would cost the same if it was one thread or 10000 threads. I'm sure whoevers hosting this is not paying for kb blocks . The whole forum is probably less then 100mb.......
Plenty of free 5GB Dataspaces to host a forum aswell if your that concerned Willow.
