^Well, the sad thing about a solution that makes posting more work in general is that while punishing spammers, you're also punishing all active members on the board unless you wanna try to code in yourself exceptions and so on.

Basically, I can see that your solutions require extra coding/plugins/modification of the boards as they work now and although I don't think that should stop you from making suggestions, I think it's a definite drawback when there are better, less labour intensive ways of dealing with this problem.
