I have to say, a designated SPAM area is a good idea. It allows people to chat in forums without any post benifits, thus removing worthless threads from other areas.
However, a scale system of warning does seem a lot better than the current system. I think both should be tried simultaniously. If the spam area doesn't work, remove it and keep scaled warning. If THAT doesn't work, go back to the old system (which is debateable, but works.)
