Memnoch, you are mostly right, at times "having to wade through spam" can become an annoyance. But ! How do you want objectively differentiate between posts, especially between the ones that fall under either C or D of your categorization ?
Do you want to set up a jury to judge questionable posts ? So while your analysis is accurate, I do not think it will help very much in terms of solving the problem, if there is so much of a problem in the first place. People will read your post, agree with you, but most will simply not identify themselves as "guilty" of spamming even if they had reason to. Just look at the responses to this thread.
Ramon, I'm not saying that at all. All I'm saying is that people should use their judgment when they post. I trust that members of this board have enough commonsense and sense of responsibility to avoid posts of the D category. Of course you can't categorize posts because they are by nature subjective. I'm telling people how I categorize them.
