Because I already did.So ha! You don't DEFINE spam, you decide if it follows MY definition. And if you decide something is spam that doesn't follow my definition, you can the "OMGWTFBBQ POWER ABBUUUSSSSEEEEE!" card played on you. As long as something isn't a double post, means something to the reader, and is on topic, it is not spam. Even if it is totally useless and doesn't contribute one bit, so long as it's on topic and you can understand what the poster's saying, it's not spam. Oh, and I will bother complaining btw because It's kinda scary that I still know everything in the ToU. |

Msj, thank you. That was the most useful thing you could have said to support me. Your post only supported my post believe it or not. means something to the reader, and is on topic, it is not spam. Even if it is totally useless and doesn't contribute one bit, I smell a contradiction... Anyway, -Spam is off topic posting and/or a post with no real meaning to the reader and/or constant double posting. So whats that? According to YOUR TOU I am correct when saying useless posts are spam? WHy thank you MSJ. Without realizing it you have actually furthered my cause. Hats off to MSJ! |

nobody's saying making posts with the word 'poop' over and over aren't spam, c, so I don't get what you're arguing about. |

Well, out of curiosity, would a funny remark be spam? I mean, it doesn't contribute, but it would be on topic, the reader would know the meaning, but it would have no real meaning. |

Yes but here's the point. If a topic starts out about band # 1 and slowly progresses to band # 2, it isn't spam because the topic progressed. That's what you made it sound like in your "announcement." Saying that stuff like that is spam that is. |

Actually, you don't. If a topic is about how hot the sun it, and someone says "the sun it out" it don't contribute one bit. But, it does mean something to the reader. It follows my definition but not yours. @ Luke: I'm not calling a post spam, I'm just saying you can't write your own definition. @ Nick: I guess that might be true. But I think I topic would be slit at that point. @ Everyone: What I'm arguing for here is a post that's on topic but is deemed non-contributor by a mod. It seems to me like IA is saying he's going to delete posts like "good idea" or "nice job" with certainly don't contribute, but these people are expressing their opinions in a manner fit for the reader and the subject. Therefor, they are to be left alone. |

... Does this have a point? The mods know spam when they see it.. If they didn't, they wouldn't be a mod. Stop arguing for the sake of arguing. |

Personally, I think most of us can recognize if a post is spam or not without some big carefully worded definition. |

I'm not arguing for the sake of arguing, I'm arguing because it seems to me like IA is gonna delete posts which I don't think are even close to spam. |

Isn't there a 25 post count reduction for spamming too? I think we need to go find all of IA's spam parades, count all the posts, and see how many posts we have to take away from him. EDIT:
He deserves quite a few warning as well

He only pasted SPAM PARADE 10 times? It seems like it would be more like 1000 posts and 100% warning level. |
