Off-Topic has existed without spam for ages. Yes, there is more of a tendency to have "more" nonsense, or chit-chit discussions in there, but those can easily be kept to a non-spam agenda. Off-Topic is not for spam.
As for which forums will be somewhat spared, well, none of them. If spam is posted, spam shall be deleted. A simple concept, which has been in place for a very long time. Do you see the immense difference in post and thread counts between GD and OT? It's one factor of what spamming has created.
As for where this thread is heading, it is heading no where at the moment. I've stated what is going to happen, and it is no different that what normally happens. We delete spam.
Alcar...
