I know what you're saying Dan, and I know your reasons, and that's why I don't post videos on here anymore; there is zero benefit. But isn't the site supposed to provide benefits in order to bring in more users?
I do question the view that motovloggers posting their motovlogs on an exclusively motovlog site should be classified as spam. Spam to me was the kitchen adverts.
Some could claim "spam" on those posting responses on nearly every thread in order just to get Top Poster of the Month award
The forum is way busier than it has been for the last 12 months.
Spam is not just chucking links, its putting content on that has nothing to do with the post etc
Signing up just so they can reply video only posts is about them getting more from motovlog than we get from them
Post video section gets auto posted on the social networks, thats way more coverage than ever before
Members have signatures, arguably the best promo tool. If people like your posts they'll check you out
If people want to sub or view videos then they simply click the vlogging link, they have a choice instead of being rammed down their throat
The video section has always had the least amount of views and hasn't dropped in web traffic since 12 months ago, even when they got removed from the new posts section it never dropped. Motovlogging is getting competitive and bigger, people dont sub or view just because anymore
I'd sooner an active forum with 100 members helping each other out, have a laugh or sort a group ride than 1000 members posting nothing but their YouTube channel
As for the top posters, it kick started the forum. You'll always get people trying to get trick it but you know what, least they normally give something back to motovlog other than me, me, me self promotion.
