Basing the identities upon the total post count of individuals is completely ludicrous, as is basing it on their post per day. Classification as a spammer should be based on the content of their posts as well as where they put their posts at. Lots of forum games are played using only one word in a post, that isn't spamming because it is where it belongs. Saying "+1" in feature requests isn't necessarily spamming either, it is showing you agree with the idea; which is what it is for in the first place. Chatting on a talk thread doesn't imply that you're a spammer either, as you are doing what the thread is meant for. Even certain posts on a clans page don't count as spamming unless a mod or the maker of the thread says so. The only place that should be extremely strict is the report users thread, because that is a serious matter.
