You should do your own research before opening a thread though. Here's the latest one with the discussion regarding this particular problem:
Shouldn't non productive topics be moved from Bitcoin Discussion to Off-Topic?

I like that the forum's open and lightly moderated. Some other forums are way too heavy handed and limit you posting the most basic of crap.

The quality of the comments here are so fucking low it hurts. I hate the people in here. They are always asking about how to get women and porn to use more bitcoin. Fuckin' stupid if you ask me.

yep. its due to greed
when the sig campaign owners reduce their reward per post. the users signed up will spam post even more, just to try staying at a certain level of income. they will start making multiple accounts as another way to try increasing their income.
the problem is that asking the sig campaign owners to not decrease the reward also incentivize's spammers to spam more.
the only solution is to completely stop sig campaigns.

Sig campaigns are such bs. Is there a reason that they haven't been banned outright?

Nonsense. This forum is at peak signal to noise ratio. If fact, I recommend adding a second signature space (right below the current one), to improve the forum further.

The unfortunate part of all of this is that there are people farming hundreds of accounts to earn their satoshis. Just look at this thread:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1597201.0;topicseen
It really takes away from us legitimate posters who just have some passive bitcoins being paid to us for something we would be doing either way.

Agreed!
I took a break from the Forum from about January until September. Coming back I noticed that there are very few new threads being created. It's indicative of the spamming going on from the worst signature campaigners. They just add new posts to the same old threads.
Then you get the signature campaign runners getting arbitrarily tough on the campaign participants. E.g., I just got pulled off the Bit AC campaign for "post frequency and quality". But my post count was 20 for the week, spread over 4 days, and my quality was far outweighing others. I tried to contest it but the guy running the campaign couldn't even cite a specific example of how I violated their rules!
I think campaigns are a good thing, they help the businesses, the grow the economy, the help the owners of this site make some coin. But the quality of talk on the forum is certainly suffering. Fewer and fewer new discussion. And no one is really policing the existing spammers out there. Although I have noticed there is a more strict review to be admitted to a campaign, which is nice.
We could all go to the other forum, www.bitcoinforum.com

the forum owner believes in open markets and freedoms (though has had some ironic examples of limiting freedom of speech on other platforms)

Every topic I look at lately is just a bunch of spammers trying to raise their post count when they should really be spending some time learning English...
You're not wrong. There are a lot of spammers on this forum more interested in making a quick dollar by posting shitty replies to a worn-out or irrelevant topic than there are people interested in actually discussing Bitcoin and talking about it in a way beyond "this ting es coll mang". Maybe if they took some of the money they earned and put it towards learning a language I would have a bit more respect for them, but it is hard when every other post lacks basic English skills.

sideline notes about English:
bitcoin is not owned by any country and English is only used as a first language by ~420mill of ~7bill.
English is adaptive,
the tom8o tom@o. color vs colour, trousers vs pants, knickers vs panties debates prove this
aswell as the differences between a british scouser talking to british cockney.
aswell as the differences between an american hill billy and someone from the bronx
in short we should not limit bitcoin to only be used and talked about by oxford scholars, because we have already begun to failed the world by pricing bitcoins usefulness out of third world countries by having the transaction fee higher then several countries hourly wage.
by the way i am a brit, yet see the bigger picture
