Default Guilty Spark

He's posting everywhere, so what can be done about that.

We'll see. If he gets annoying, we'll restrict him to certain section. But he does generate some interesting articles. Some...

And his posts are overlapping. He posted about the Halo videos twice already..

I've helped solved the problem. I've created subforums for the automated news bits to be posted in. Regular discussion can carry on in the main forum above the news section.

Maybe we need to restrain him to just the Latest News Sections (Refers to latest all thread spam by Guilty Spark)

He might spam everywhere, but some of the posts are semi useful as I don't check IGN or Gamespot all the time to get the latest news. We'll see, at least his posts don't appear in the News Posts section.

Still say we should give him (and his ilk) their own forum. The relentless spam renders the User threads in those sections useless (They just get buried to the bottom by all the "Sentinals")

They are only buried on the forum index. If you click the Xbox 360 Discussion forum, e.g. Xbox Xbox 360 Discussion - HaloNation.net, you are still shown all the user content. Automated news threads are restricted to the forum that says, News. And usually, the bot will post it before anyone else in terms of news.
