       Theoretical Solution to Spam

       This will never happen since everyone is too childish and
       idiotic etc.
       But if we really wanted to keep sheep tag active and have the
       most fun we possibly could on BNET we would all unite and create
       one big clan.
       Behh/CsB/StH/oSa = One new single clan with /clan private
       constantly on.
       It would have to be similar to Behh with no bans/kicks allowed
       and each clan would get a shaman spot. And yeah I would be the
       leader since no one else can be trusted not to ban and go crazy
       over a flame.
       This is how we would maximize our fun. Too bad you're all too
       unorganized and idiotic to cooperate :D

       Okay sherlock, how do you suppose of fitting over 200 members in
       a clan of 100? Furthermore, how do you expect people to
       co-operate with each other in the same channel?
       You have a community dominated by retarded freaks, (no offence),
       just keep urselves to urselves, no drama required.

       Yo sherlocks,
       We have less than 100 active people altogether. Especially if we
       limit to 1 account per person (no multiple for bots). Hostbots
       can stay outside if needed.
       People would fight - of course. It would be a PARTY. And no one
       would be allowed to ban or kick. It could be just me or some
       other dudens as chief with no shamans allowed even.
       It's the perfect plan. But dw, ofc it will never happen ^^

       Yeah I also think this is the best solution given the current
       circumstances. Ive always been a fan of many different clans to
       compete, but the spambotproblem is simply too big today. If we
       dont unite we will perish.

       Yee,
       Would be interesting to hear what CsB and Grr think about this?
       Cmk, Polar, Jeanmii, etc
       The benefits are as follows:
       Immunity to spam
       Activity boosted by an incredible amount
       Constant chat parties
       More games
       Prolonged community life span
       The disadvantages are as follows:
       You would possibly lose some of your power (but what power do
       you really have when your channel is getting spammed to ****?)
       You would have to on some level get along with others in a
       ban-free/kick-free arena where flames are allowed
       I would have more power (and I would work to enforce no banning
       and no kicking at all costs (as well as no spamming - much like
       on these forums))

       Why even need a clan at that point? Lets just take over sheep
       tag channel or an OP channel.

       licky.

       Pretty sure an OP Sheeptag would just get spammed right?
       Also if individual members of the st community are spamming (and
       maybe not admitting it) could run into issues if they get
       invited to the clan.
       I think a solution that more people would be inclined to do is
       set up a clan (say clan ST) but keep it as unlike a clan as
       possible.  No power positions, no loyalties, nationalism etc,
       and just put a bot as chieftain, which only serves to /clan
       priv.  Don't ask people to leave their current clans (most won't
       do this), but instead just join on an aka, to chat and find
       games, etc.
       Obviously the big flaw is most people won't want to switch to
       akas full-time, but I doubt you'll ever get current clan leaders
       / shams to disband / leave clan.  Logging on an aka while the
       clan is spammed and useless anyway, might be an easier
       transition, and some clanless people or people that don't care
       can join on their main accounts.  Personally idgaf if I had to
       long on "drewisfat2" or some shit instead of drewisfat.
       I'd be more than willing to try this idea, as I don't see sheep
       tag surviving if everyone is holed up in their own channel.
       Then only a couple of people are there, don't see anyone else,
       log off, and days will go by without anyone playing a game.

       This would work to keep spammers out. But instead destroy all
       clan rivlary/competition and make things like smurfing
       impossible (some would argue this is good)
       One thing I toyed around with in the past is creating your own
       PvPGN server (battle net realm) this could be a interesting
       solution if the spamming becomes such a big problem that it
       starts to kill off activity. The benefit would be the ability to
       only allow wc3 clients to connect.
       Too we wouldn't be able to trust anyone to maintain it and
       people are too stupid to cooperate for a better experience.
       Also, the idea of everyone using the same channel never appealed
       to me. There is a BIG difference in maturity between certain
       people and a wide range of interests. With multi-clan system you
       hang out/chat with the people most similar to yourself and you
       can choose the level of the discussion by swapping channels.
       With one channel you would have 4 different topics discussed
       simultaneously drowning eachother and ruining for everyone.
