No strong feelings about 3♠, although I'd open 2 myself.

Now I pass.

3♠ was ok. Now pass, unless you're playing those "I wanna take a save, what about you?" doubles.

I don't like 3♠. Bidding now is suicidal

I like the 3♠ opening. Bidding in front of partner here is good way to end a partnership, why can't partner have a good hand?

3♠ is "OK"... I would have opened 2♠ probably, but this is because of the garbage my partners raise me to game with. I will now pass, because partner could still have a good hand, and if not, I can always put a club in with my spades :).
Yay for the "Ignored Users" feature!

I don't think the suggestion is to bid 5♣ or 5♠. Rather, it is to double to show a hand with very little defense and willingness to bid one more. Pard will pull or pass accordingly.
