GameCrash was definitely on the right track, trying to add as much functionality as possible to his hack, but there definitely has to be a line drawn somewhere.

May I frame this? I totally agree with that part. Rather than allowing 'every jackass' to have his own forum which is just the x-th forum about one topic and as a result having for example 20 IT-Forums, where every forum of that kind is covering more or less the same topic is not only totally useless, it would even cluster every forum into tons of small communities in which no one knows about the other one ... what a nightmare. IMHO automation of this should never be allowed, but I don't guess, GameCrash wanted to serve such a pupose in any way.

In short: Allowing misuse of this or similar hacks in a form which is the same or similar to Waynes example should definately be forbidden but not the hack in general.
