The 15 post thing is there for precisely the reason that it is a pain in the arse.

Having it set at 15 really makes it easier for the mods to spot spam. If you set it to 10 it's harder to judge if someone is spamming with 6 or 7 posts than it is with 12 or 13 posts like we do currently, basically it gives us a bigger picture to work with.

Plus we prefer to get rid of them during the spamming rather than after because once they've spammed they never come back. If you catch them at it you can tell them exactly what you think of them while you are banning them, and it makes it that bit more satisfying.

And 5 more posts if you're planning to stick around is hardly a big ask, even if you don't post a lot.
