yeah their seems to be a self-perpetuating idea that this place is over run with spammers and that no discussion is going on because of the spam.
if it was that bad, most folks would have left. people spam here because the forums have heavy traffic, strong participation, and regulars.
I'd say, if the spam bothers you that much, join a better moderated forum, but I'll leave you with a word of caution from Ben Franklin...
"people willing to trade their freedom for temporary security deserve neither and will lose both"
