Spam
 
As you all should know, spam stands for Stupid Pointless Annoying Messages, and generally pisses people off. Let's have a look at some things.

When posting topics:
Stupid - Can be stupid, as long as it is reasonable.
Pointless - Don't post pointless topics, like M.O.M did. (sorry M.O.M)
Annoying - Don't post annoying topics, like giving people shit for having a different opinion than you.

When posting replies:
Stupid - As long as it is on topic.
Pointless - Don't write pointless off topic replies. They don't acheive anything
Annoying - The big N-O! Like I said, these messages piss people off. Don't write single word replies, or 34rpujfh43upfhruo4ehfgiuorehgvoyure replies either. You will get banned, as I once did (I got banned for bad mouthing Abe Babe).

Don't spam please.

1. That's questionable.

2a. What's wrong with one-word replies? Sure. Most one-word replies are spam but not all.

2b. What username were you using at the time and what did you say about her?

Hey.
I post a lot of Stupid Pointless tests/games/links. But I wouldn't call them Spam. I call them something that everyone can enjoy. So you see Stupid and Pointless things aren't always SPAM.

ODDBODD 07-05-2002 05:13 AM

ditto :D

Tests, games and links. It doesn't matter if they're stupid. Unless its a test like:

Who knows who has the biggest breasts on oddworld forums?.......................

ODDBODD 07-05-2002 06:01 AM

General Drippik 07-05-2002 06:21 AM

There has been a lot of spam lately, mostly coming from a couple of new members. I wont embarrass them by saying who they are, it's rather obvious.

By the way, those spamming in this topic: it's not funny or witty. It's a waste of bandwidth and a waste of time. Stop it or be banned. :)

General Drippik 07-06-2002 12:27 AM

Roger that, Syd man. There has been a lot of spamming, part of the reason I made this topic.

ban me and ill ban you from the clubhouse of cheese!

"Stupid", "Pointless", and "Annoying" are all subjective terms, which is why Spam can never be policed properly. I think the most accurate definition of Spam is "Things that Sydney thinks are Spam." I'm not being cheeky or sarcastic in saying that, I mean it. It's his board...
