The reason there's such a controversy and discussion about instant signups is beacuse the spammers and trolls aren't just causing problems on their own server.
For example a few days ago there were trolls signing up with extremely racist usernames. They couldn't do this on servers that have moderated signups because the mods would see it, but they were able to do this on servers with instant signups.

I get why that is a real issue.
It still feels like punishing the whole class because that one kid is an epic dick.
