Sorry hiccup if this is mini-moding but noticed many people saying 'Oh i missed it" or "I missed it again!" I'm not trying to tell you or your mods how to do your job, But a lot of other threads have rules against that and give penalties, Maybe if you tried it spam would go down, Again just a suggestion ^u^. Sorry If this wasn't needed :).
the sooner i get my tablet the better. ._.

I was seriously just about to say that myself, :0 mind reader C:
Well ya, so exactly what Lute said, its getting spammy around here and there is two pages already of, "I missed it." or "Congrats to the winners." I know your congratulating them, but its rather spammy. If you really wish to tell them your happy they got in, please PM them. As for the rest of the stuff, it can be taken over to the fanclub. Or the chatroom. Thank you Lute for pointing that out.

Another suggestion which was brought up earlier in the thread I believe but did not get many replies on it is, that people have the ability to delete a post after posting it for up to a day after posting. There could be a rule, if you spam and do not delete your spam, you could be temporarily banned from being able to be a guest artist even if they get their form in one of the top four slots. The ban would only last a week the first time they refuse to listen to listen to the rule, but if they continue to disobey the rule and the suggestion of the mods to delete their posts, they can be banned much longer, or be banned entirely from the thread. Just having the threat of that hanging over peoples' heads should be enough to cut down on the spam. Of course, the first time they do it they should be informed by the mods and given a chance to delete the message before getting a warning. Some messages don't delete for some reason or another, so some may not be able to delete the message, but they can tell the mods if they can't. Hope this helps a bit with keeping the spam down

You can only delete a post if there is no post after it, which is hard. See, you could delete the above post, but now that I post here, you can't ^3^
