1. I never said it was.
2. Because problems here would necessarily require locking of the thread to solve, assuming the mods would even want to deal with said problems (short of shit like flaming/flamebaiting/pornspamming/etc., they don't really seem to want to handle problems here, rather encouraging us to self-police).
3. I'm not trying to do that at all. I'm trying to get everybody here to agree to certain basic standards so that this thread is enjoyable for everybody, and quality of discussion doesn't suffer.
4. Since when was a legitimate topic of discussion spam?

It's a rather serious subject, actually. Some might think that the subject is too serious for the fun fair that TET is supposed to be, hence the attempt to make it go away by categorizing it as spam. Spam, however, is usually characterized by the total lack of content, whereas this subject usually results in posts filled to the brim with content. Also remember that Gallade is currently enjoying a hangover, so her judgement may be clouded at the moment.
