@Wik : There's not much the mods can do to encourage quality right now, until they replace the ranking system, because posts are created by the users. As for the "Quality is better than quantity" phrase, at least quantity is better than nothing. And no, that doesn't encourage spam as much as saying "Spamming is not a crime" and allowing chain-spamming to spread throughout a forum until it creates hundreds of pages of spam.

@Alemas : I'm pretty sure that they didn't accept those just to speed up moderation. The old mods have let up off-topic posts in Time Off MBs Speeches Podium, too. I think it was just a mistake.
