Agreed. Spammer Authors are the worse. MR has to deal with them too.
On another note: GR has apologized to the 21 users who were originally effected by the new guidelines and now say they will notify people before deleting so I think this solves the issue on the new guidelines. 21 users are very small percentage when you think how many users there are at GR. I think this was blown way out proportion. I applaud GR for responding so quickly to clarify everything and making an effort to notify anyone in the future who violates the new terms.
Also those who are confused on the shelves rules. This is what GR has said.
