Its not a matter of banning older, dedicated members, its a matter of enforcing the rules. If they get banned for 1-2 days for too much spamming, then they will cut it down a little when they get back, or else the ban will be longer next time. Spam is fine, but in moderation.

I agree with u and I got an idea, what if when u ban some1, u make a thread which says who's banned, reason and for how long so that's some kind of warning to other members so that they wont think of doing the same thing as the banned person.
Also maybe send a pm to all members again explaining problems about spamming and explain some rules.
If u have any troubles with spam in the chat forum then first of all look at this
Come on in and to your regular spamming and chatting. You can discuss anything here with the reason to keep the spam off the other forums. This forum might have a lot of completely useless or bizarre content, but that is a part of the fun.
this is description of the chat forum, obviously the fun part is gone for many ppl...so maybe change this a bit first, that could at least help vs new members
another thing u could do is make an important thread about rules in chat forum and explain that spamming is allowed TO A CERTAIN EXTEND and should not be the main point of a thread
It's a shame that if good members are leaving because those few others just fuck up everything
this is just my view on it and all I have to say (for now, maybe some more later)
