Couple things:
#1 - Clear up your idea, repost and make it into a poll.. This was dificult for me to understand\comprehend.
#2 - Some people change, but I do like the idea of punishing repititive spam abusers (rather than warn) - But there are other consequences.
#3 Id vote no - I make off topic threads once inawhile, but I wouldnt want to be affected.. People need to make off topic posts once in awhile, its completely normal..
#4 A variation of your post, maybe just
stricter enforcement on spam control.
Maybe you could think of a diferent form of punishment and post that as a suggestion, see what kind of feedback you get.
Good luck, and keep up the suggestions
