DI has got a point. When Syd did this everyone went apeshit. Now Alcar acts completely draconian deleting posts left and right and everyone just bends over and takes it without lubrication? Un freaking believable!
Yes, as Mac explained, the demographics of the Oddworld Forums at this point in time are completely different. So you can't expect the same responses. However, one major point you've overlooked, Statikk, is that back then, hardly anyone actually spammed. There was the occasional newbie, who was set straight very quickly, but other than that, not much in the way of rule breaking.

However. There is a lot of rule breaking and spamming now.
