Uhh, depending on what you mean by "flawed feature" I don't agree at
all. If you're saying "this is a valid feature but we can't figure out a
way to avoid random peopple spamming teams" then I'm in agreement.
There's definitely a valid use case in providing a way to contact a team
-- for teams that have no contact email addresses (the majority, btw:
3973 total teams
1142 teams with a contact email address set
2831 teams with no contact email address set
) there's no other way to do it. The problem seems to be figuring out a
creative way of allowing that without also making it easy to spam
people.
