Then again. Why do people join these kind of forums in the 1st place? To ask a question. What will they do if they wont be able to do so? Either ask it in already existing thread, which will make it less likely to be answered, or just leave the forum.

And as you can perfectly see from the recent past events, spammers are perfectly capable of spamming up already existing threads (as well as the calendar), so not letting them make new threads is not solving the problem.

It's actually a good idea, unless we remember the fact that they can use several accounts at the same time
