Spammers :(
 
ok, i'm going to be deleting one word responses and stuff.

the word "yes" as a post is really annoying
i really dislike the one word responses, please try not to do it.

i've already deleted a few of sniperjoe10's posts because of it, and I will be deleting all one word posts and pointless spam.

Okay, I think deleting one-word posts is a good idea

I just want to know though... other than one-word posts, what do you consider spam? So that I'll know and try not to post it.

Fai 05-15-2001 03:19 AM

Spam that should be deleted:

Quote responses
1-2 word responses
Picture responses
New Sig/Avatar threads
Action figure threads/Card threads

responding to posts with smiley faces, changing topics into discussions about signatures, and posting pictures in topics that have nothing to do with the picture.

Cloud_X 05-15-2001 03:21 AM

Hrmmm I currently Believe I havent spammed so I dont reall have much to worry about =]]

StoneColdRichie 05-15-2001 03:23 AM

Gah, I forgot. I am also deleting posts that are just nothing more then quotes.

freddyfox 05-15-2001 03:23 AM

Bwahahahaha! I will escape the system by posting a picture AND 5 words!

Zulithe 05-15-2001 03:26 AM

Okay, so Spam is defined as the following:

One/Two-word posts of any kind
Posts that contain nothing but quotes
Posts that cointain nothing but pictures
Posts that cointain nothing but smileys
Any new threads about Sigs/Avatars/Cards/Figures
Changing threads into topics about S/A/C/F

Okay got it... Everyone take notice. If you ever wanted to know what Spam *is*, well, it *is* the above so don't post any of that kthxbye

Kaimetsu 05-15-2001 03:30 AM

I propose that people who post irrelevent but still worthwhile stuff should be given some time to relocate it. Either that or the admins should relocate it for them. Still, people who post worthwhile stuff are unlikely to put it somewhere irrelevent, but it happens.

TheFrozenFiend 05-15-2001 03:32 AM

ok I will not

(4 words is ok isnt it?) :D

Spamming is extremely stupid and needs to be stop. This board has turned from a discussion of Graal2001 into a Spamming forum. Thank you Gameo :D

Rekad 05-15-2001 04:30 AM

you cant get rid of spamming, it will always be around in different forms!

05-15-2001 04:30 AM

:D

(Yes, I posted this just to cause a riot, but I added this convenient text at the end so it can't be deleted! :D)

I don't believe this is true. All we need is one dedicated moderator. :rolleyes:

sniperjoe10 05-15-2001 04:34 AM

Spamming is enevitable. It will ALWAYS be around.

Kaimetsu 05-15-2001 04:34 AM

That dedicated mod would need to be online 100% of the time, otherwise he/she would miss stuff. And if people turn that stuff into a long debate, is it right to delete the whole thing?

ReBBisH 05-15-2001 04:36 AM

or perhaps a number of mods so that there is always one online

I'm online from 6:00 am to 11:00 pm. I don't go to school or work or anything so Haaa. That's like 70% of the time though.

ReBBisH 05-15-2001 04:39 AM

But, would you be a good choice for moderator?

vergil 05-15-2001 04:41 AM

:confused: :confused:
when was The Game made a moderator?

Rekad 05-15-2001 04:42 AM

no Fai! I wanna be the police chef!

It should have been made a few days ago.

When he rubbed a magic genie bottle and the genie said "I WILL GRANT YOU 2 WISHES!" and game said "I WISH I WAS A MODERATOR AND THAT VERMAIN WOULD UPDATE HIS SITE MORE" and then the genie said "IT IS DONE!" and played some 1950's pop song and vanished.

Fai 05-15-2001 04:43 AM

Add to the spam list: MY BIRTHDAY threads. People can easily look at the calendar.

No. Everyone deserves a "Happy Birthday" from the people on the board.

vergil 05-15-2001 04:47 AM

i think birthday threads are perfectly fine. if you go that far, well hey why not delete pointless threads, or threads that are incorrect, or threads that imply an insult, or threads that dont have anything to do with graal, or threads that don't have anythign to do with graal 2001, or threads that.... just stop there. This is why America's judicial system is lienent in that it allows a judge and/or jury to decide WHAT is a crime (spam in this case) and what is not. let's take it on a case-to-case basis, not a bunch of specific rules

Rekad 05-15-2001 04:51 AM

I say AMEN!!! the american Judicial system has the best juristictions, you cant have one blanket law covering everything!
