ninja_lord666 Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 I hope you read this and seriously think about it instead of simply locking it. I'm not sure about the level of spamming going on in these forums, but would a thread devoted specifically to spamming be a good idea? I'm not out for personal gain here. I'm asking in all seriousness. If someone has urges to spam just for the fun of it, they could take it out in that particular thread so then they wouldn't need to in other threads causing it to be locked, *harming* others who want to actually discuss in there, and the person to be warned/givin a strike/banned. I know many of the spammers just want to increase their post count, but this thread should be pinned in The Lounge so people can't take advantage of the spamming to increase thier posts. This could make things easier on the moderators who have to deal with the mindless spamming, but, like I said, I'm not sure exactly how much spamming actually goes on in these threads... Thank you for your time. Edit: After thinking about it, I realised that this is probably in the wrong place. Sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Povuholo Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 http://forum.gamingsource.net/index.php?showtopic=30000Thanks for refreshing my memory... No, I don't think we want a spam thread. o_O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switch Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 Heh well maybe, if it would actually contain the spammers within said thread... but I doubt it. In the end it's up to Dark0ne whether he wants to allow one of those here or not. One problem with such a thread is it's near impossible to moderate once things get underway, and people could start flamewars and such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Povuholo Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 Or you allow it and call it the forum spring cleaning! You can deal with the then overfull Forum Rules and Strikes forum later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ninja_lord666 Posted April 7, 2007 Author Share Posted April 7, 2007 Yes, I'm afraid it will turn into flamming, but anything could become a flame war...well, ok, maybe not everything. My point is, we should at least give it a chance. If flamming stars, we could just close the thread and forget it ever existed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Povuholo Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 What are you expecting if this is approved? This? lol hi hello how R u? We not banned for this lol! :DDDDDDDDD I'm fine. And spammy! LOL! Lol I made double posts! MB sucks weeeeeeeeee hi I ned 2 wee 2! SPAM lol!----------------Also, people (most of the times) don't spam because they get the sudden urge to, they spam because they don't know or ignore the rules. Many probably have never seen the lounge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
