This saves having to waste more server resources by implementing new stuff to try prevent spam. There will always be some sort of bypass found by someone. I hate seeing spam as much as the next person and report spammers/leechers from their profile daily and it's annoying but when it's done it's done. If you hate it that much you can adjust what you see in the Activity Feed here. I am personally against adding more to the to-do list for Aoki and Sozin especially when it's something that gets dealt with pretty swiftly usually. There is a staff member online pretty much all the time to deal with the threads when they've been reported.
I do understand where you are coming from. But with the activity feed thing. I keep it to both for two reasons
1. In case someone responds to my thread that's a leak saying it's a dead link, so I can fix it as soon as possible.
2. If there is a cool leak that someone drops. I never check the sub forum for that, since I don't like searching.
Also. The reporting thing is nice. But there are times when mods aren't on or active. It will always happen. So during that time there should be a system in place that regulates the swarm of leechers
