This is incredibly dumb on Kickstarter's part. Why not just give project managers the ability to turn off comments if spam is getting out of control? Unless I'm missing something, comments are not an integral part of Kickstarter's function.
Anyway, if comments were turned off, a potential contributor could just reach out via email or some type of private message if they had a concern about the project.
And obviously banning a project and a user for "engaging with a spammer" without any warning is just appalling.
"If there is any chance that Rachel will receive spam from a stalker on her project, she should not create one." This statement is just so stupid. Kickstarter should be responsible for dealing with spam if they want to be taken seriously.
