Deletion for Mods Options

[Simba]

I think you guys seriously need to revert back to the old rule, where "spam" topics are never deleted. I don't even care if it's mass spam, maybe there's a legit topic you might have accidentally deleted in the whole mess. I even remember back when I was a mod, forums like The Lounge once being gloriously painted in red because of the remains of closed mass spam topics, because we had to close each one.

DELETING IS MOD ABUSE

I have no problem with that.

I do want to say, though, as a compromise, if the spam accumulates to one page or more per spam period, it gets deleted.

I think it should be less than that. I mean, 15 topics is still a big chunk of the first page. Also, not everyone sees the same number of topics per page, so that could ge thairy as a definition.

Also, this would not apply to ads, either, correct?
