this is the fate of any forum – there are always "old-timers" who have already discussed everything and covered all the topics, but then newcomers arrive and start asking questions, discussing things that have already been discussed a thousand times, and simply spamming. Naturally, people who have been on the forum for a long time are no longer interested in this. Therefore, closed topics appear, or the old-timers simply go to places where they find it more interesting – this process is inevitable. And regarding spamming, I agree, it needs to be stopped.
