thanks so much for this post! I hope that others take the time to read this one as well as the new guidelines :)
Hopefully over the next couple of weeks we will see the junk in the tag die out once those users (or one user with multiple junk accounts) realises that its not a good way to earn tips... It's gonna be nice to be able to enjoy reading quality posts in the tag without having to trawl through the BS anymore :)
