Thats true in some part but the issue with that is I get a bunch of emails from people who have subscribed to those topics. When the apammers post to them these people get a message but by the time they get there the mods have already deleted the spam postings and everyone is confused about why they recieved a message saying there was a post on the thread.
I do agree though I have seen some interesting old topics get bumped by spammers and then regain momentum. The biggest task now is getting rid of the spammer accounts that had registered but not posted spam, I have deleted over 1000 and there are still more.
