We have a voting system to keep the Spam and Crap out of sight, An I'd say that works quite fine. I see no spam or copies near our front page, so I say the community is doing fine cleaning TPT up by themselves.

Im not sure what your animosity is for towards me.

Asides from that, I apologize fir calling you " New" I have never seen you active on the forums before and assumed you were new.

No, I was not suggesting (Even slightly) that you are uncapable of running this petition.

However you only seem to be reiterating what everyone else tells noobs "Go to the wiki", "Ask someone" Problem is, Noobs are so annoying, that helping them is like speaking to a rock.

we already have rules, we don't need more from the likes of you.

@The-Fall- If you see anyone abusing PAST, tell them to stop. This is supposed to be a good cause. If the don't use it right, that is not our problem.

How is it not your problem? Your solution has become your problem, which defeats this systems use.

Also, all who support it are responsible as they are who advertised it, who claimed it would work, yet, the solution itself is now being abused. Hmm.... Sounds like an issue.

You need a solution which cannot in itself be abused.

And since the PAST system call on those who use to "Protect and restore TPT" YOU the people who support it must maintain your system. The moderators will not do it for you, you made it, you take care of it.

I personally support you but I think that it is like adding a drop to the sea wanting to make a tsunami.

What I mean is that, even if your idea is good and supports a fair cause, it will not have much effects due to the number of n00bs you evocated.

I think that not even a quarter of them has gone to the site more than once (just for downloading TPT).

So we are very far from imaginating the n00bs reading your post and suddently have a burst of guiltiness and thinking "Oh, he is right ! I should stop stealing and copying and trolling and all that stuff for the good of comunity. I now will spend more time on making proper saves and behave like an advanced and respectful user."

Sorry but I think you're starting a lost fight.

Still, nothing's impossible...

Everywhere in the world there are systems being abused. Sometimes they are not taken care of. We will try to stop them, but we not be able to do it 100% of the time. It is up to the common user to make sure it is running. I guess I may of put it wrong by saying that it is not our problem. I should have said that we will not be able to keep people from abusing it. We simply can't. This PAST group needs to keep an eye open. You should to.
