    When this game starts gaining more players -which it will- people will start spamming to get a higher rank.
    Example: I wantz bomb jumperz *spam spam spam spam spam spam spam spam yay banned!*
    So, I was just wondering if anyone else wants these ranks removed, or do you think they should stay?

    Nah, those people would spam regardless, trust me, they used to do it just to get well-known member back when we still had the old ranks or just because they wanted to have as many posts as the "cool" people. Spam gets deleted usually anyways (so you guys shouldn't see it, and if you do, report it) and having those kind of people on the forums is something we'd want to have in the first place, so they'd deserve to get banned in the first place. So the only people who would have issue with it are forum mods because it might give them more work.

    Also moved to forum and wiki.

    In each forums you have spammer and ranks or not, people spam just to get more posts. Also, with all these moderators, a spam message is rapidly deleted or the guy get a warning.

    btw, the only spammer here are BlueLuigi. :p

    Also those spammers could get a 1000 messages but then they'd have to get the likes and nobody likes spammers

    Maybe you could merge both, if you spam you lose your rank,
    maybe that might make people feel special not having any-name.
    But that could be the last warning before a ban?

    If you spam, your message will be deleted and message counts don't grows up. Bad message, no likes.
    So, you don't get ranks if you are a spammer. You don't need something to lose ranks.

    I do know that the messages are deleted, I was just thinking of ways to hopefully limit spammers. (Which will never happen)

    To be honest, I have not seen a significant amount of spammers to begin with.

    That's against the forum rules and they'd get banned (it's been done before by a person on these forums, who goes by the name of a guy who made another game that KAG is sometimes compared to).
