It can just look like another entertaining feature of the current layout, but in the last week we were bombarded with spams. I know that a "Top Poster" would not be the only reason for that, but it also estimulates it. So, here's my question: Should we remove it from the site or not?

Yes, but i doubt it would do anything to stop the flow of spam, you just need to be stricter.

I haven't seen much spam. I don't see any need to remove it. Besides, nobody spams to increase their post count... it's too obvious if they do.

Spamming for post count is really quite pointless. It doesn't mean anything.

As for MY count, it was 1400 and something, but it's been going down since my posts are starting to be deleted.

And, that high post count wasn't due to spam.

I think It should be removed, because at least the top 3 is always gonna be the same: Banshee, Kane, Tapek. Noone can top this.

Dolts splitting posts for no reason are annoying.

Banshee, none of us spam. And, if we do make an occasional post in the offtopic forum, it's a mistake and doesn't happen more often necessary.
