Okay,
This is unacceptable. If you can't stop posting spam then don't post at all. Let me explain some of the details
a) Talk about Lua scripting, keep it to ROBLOX as much as you can b) Don't ask for help here, this will result in a ban c) This vs That threads are unacceptable. Most regulars lack the knowledge to comment on what language you must learn next. Let your projects and interests guide you on what you want to learn next. Instead discuss the algo/feature for your project regardless of the language. This is not stackoverflow.
If I see any thread that is even remotely off severe infractions will be handed out.

What about discussion on interfacing with roblox's website in other syntax's?
For eg. Talking about making extensions for roblox Using the catalog api

If it leads to intelligent discussion I am all for it. Ideally, there would be only a handful new posts a day on this forum.

Understood. However, what if the topic is about a 3rd party project, but the project relates to ROBLOX? For instance: I have been working on a ROBLOX Lua Editor for the past two months or so, and it is almost ready for release. The target audience is scripters of ROBLOX. In theory, this would be the most correct section to place that topic in, correct?

That sounds great.
I also think punishing thread de-railing and the general abuse handed to the less knowledgeably or those posts that have failed to follow the rules before they are removed should also be grounds for an infraction. |

| My post that was labelled as spam was not spam at all. It was simply a topic about scripting/Body-velocity, I was not intending to clog the place up. Deactivating accounts because of this is over the top in my opinion. |

I concur with Absolute; I have been putting changelogs of my ROBLOX mobile forums on this forum in hopes of getting valuable feedback from other programmers / ROBLOX users. Is this still allowed?

I guess not considering I was just banned for asking "Wasn't the forum supposed to be hidden?" Don't ban me because you can't keep your word.

Did he make any promises that the forum would be hidden?
Im sure he and lots of us would have liked it but you have to factor in external influences. Its not sorcus's fault.

| No, this rule will not be enforced properly. You see, it works like this: Anything you post that a mod can actually understand will be judged as spam and deleted promptly. It's time to obfuscate your English, people. All of your knowledge of grammar and vocabulary shall finally pay off. |

@Charl.
Pretty much this(it counts for posts too, not only threads): "a) Talk about Lua scripting, keep it to ROBLOX as much as you can" |

So it's Lua-only again? -.-
Sorcus man our forum was fine. Spam wasn't the main problem. It's blaktanker starting flame wars.
Ugh you're sounding like my old head teacher :( |

| SN0X, I don't recall that member ever starting any "flame wars." If you are unable to control yourself, then I think it is time to quit this forum. |

| You should make it stricter than a zero tolerance policy: make it a -5 tolerance policy. |
