Spammed forums and backlinks

[s.aint]

Hey Guys.
I would like to get some backlinks from forum but there are few spammed on my list. By "spammed" I mean multiple threads from different countries. I was wondering... what are the limits of decency? When should I delete a forum from my list? Should I check for example Spam Score from Moz, DA, PA?
Or maybe I should create a new thread anyway?
Or maybe there are other tools to check how much dangerous spam there is?

Thanks in advance

MOZ seems to be the best tool for spam scores.

MOZ disallow if +10% SPAM links

I'm not sure how accurate that moz spam score is. I've seen really legit sites with spam scores of 35+. Nothing beats manual inspection

I deeply think you can do BL on spammy websites IF that's not the only source of backlinks you have. And also, these kind of BL have to be a small proportion/percentage of your overall backlinks. It keeps it natural
I don't hesitate to link my website with BL on spammed spots b/c I have 95%+ of quality BL (for example).
