The issue with "topic flooding" is being addressed. Some of the parties who've been doing so have been contacted and asked to stop doing so.

This is a real issue, as it makes the site far less enjoyable to use for those who are creating real content. Those who continue to flood pointless topics (i.e. "top five weather") will have their points and system access revoked.

This community is about quality discussion, not just a proliferation of crap. If you spot someone "topic flooding", please do ask them to knock it off.
