Same as when a message warning about bumping old threads appears, make a message warning about the way as the Sprite Requests sections works and why, every time a new thread is created there.
Make it say specific things like explaining that large requests will most likely be totally ignored (unless a payment in cash is involved to make the request worth of someone's time) and that giving help there is a voluntary thing, not an obligation.
That should -in theory- make all these panhandlers finally realize that Sprite Requests is not a place where they can butt in and cite bullshit reasons to demand people to work for them.
In theory.
