Reasoning is flawed. We are not asking to ban value threads, just collate them into a subforum. If there is a "Value" subforum, then those clicks will still happen and advertising dollars will still come in. The big difference is since all those threads will be in a separate subforum, I and others like me do not have to go skipping multiple pages of value threads just to get to the threads we want.
Huge numbers here do often give in to said temptation, just because it is forced in their faces and they can't resist the urge.
Those people wouldn't voluntarily go to a value sub-thread, therefore rennlist has reduced clicks/posts/revenue.

Best idea:
If there are too many mentions to 'future value'
'Future collectable', and use 'RS+Money+ADM' or 'manual+value+Future' as linked post phrases then RL can automatically:
PUT A DOLLAR SIGN NEXT TO THE THREAD HEADLINE AND WE AVOID IT / DIVE IN
Mods, talk to programmers and make it happen. Anything with 25% or more bias towards posts including those phrases is therefore a 'value thread'

Look at the first page - there are only 3-4 now. This concept will die down for 991's soon as you cant drive them for free any more. In fact they made so many 991 vs 997 that none will be collectible except maybe the speedster or the R (dubious). It will rinse and repeat for the 992 GT3. Those that hate value threads should just not go in. I try and avoid them unless I'm bored (on the road) with nothing better to do.
The horse is out the barn for 991's - maybe target 992's
