(I'm talking about the main general chat forum, not the sub forums of it.)

Here is the link. http://forums.d2jsp.org/forum.php?f=27 Take a minute to look at some of the posts.

Every single post is complete spam and most make no sense. I made a post and it got spammed. Nobody has any serious answers to anything and most people just flame eachother. I say get rid of it.

edit:
here is my topic

Well that means more mods would have to patrol it if any are now. And that would decrease from the trade forums which would make those more spamy. I say just get rid of it. It is pointless.

Well if you get rid of it then the spam will just move elsewhere, as we saw with User Blogs

Possibly. That is a valid point. Or it may die off because those people would get warns. I do admit it's a tough choice.

The name General chat suggests that its posts can hardly ever be called spam.

The spam would just move to less appropriate forums.
