Baroana is commenting that since it is able to be done here, then why can't these other forums manage it as well.

Status: offline 		I think... Im not sure on this... its just my belief... but spammers might be quickly found out and accounts deleted if they start posting to the message boards. Not to mention, they threads would not hang around for long. On top of that, this site shows up in search engines. Not many companies who like to spam want to be associated with posting on a kink site while spamming a religious one.

I can hazard a guess at a few more... but they are simply guesses.

Dont judge me because I sin differently than you.
If you want it sugar coated, dont ask me what i think! It would violate TOS.

Status: offline 		One barrier is that you don't simply register for an account on this forum through a link as is usual for a forum. Here you have to register at collarme.com and then post on collarchat.com. Spamming is done mostly by bots, software programs, and they are built for the standard way of doing things so that twist likely stops most spammers.
