It seems to me that this could be what I've been looking for — what Stack Overflow steadfastly refuses to be — a vehicle for mutual assistance and learning.

Of course that does make it rather vulnerable to plz send teh codez but the best way to deal with people like that is to ignore them.

Besides, to my right as I compose this hello message I see that Forem is itself a community project. If necessary, one could contribute a way to measure personal reputation and filter out the spammers that way (widespread negative reactions would rapidly mark them out).

Here's to the road ahead. I hope you don't mind grumpy old men.
