If everyone hates spam...

If everyone hates spam so much, then it should be where you don't have to have a certain post count to have an avatar and change your title.
That would greatly reduce spam AND make people happier.
Who agrees?

ok
but don't you think it would be a good idea to have it where you can have a different avatar and different title without having a certain post count?

Oooh you're just saying that because you don't have your own title and avatar

psihunter · #7 01-09-2002, 09:48 AM

You just want a title and avatar now

But seriously, that IS a major cause of spam, and even on the spam thread in off topic forum people want to get rid of it.
It would do both, why is everyone so against it? You just like feeling "special" among those who DON'T have it, right?

I don't have a problem with spam, and like I said the forums would be more dead without our loved spam

Vyse_the_Blue_Rogue · #10 01-09-2002, 09:52 AM

Ok, but why is everyone so against it?!
Why is it such a bad idea? Instead of saying "You just want your title and avatar now" say why the idea is bad. And if spam is so good, then everyone should quit jumping on someone who spams. And of course I want my title and avatar now.

Vyse_the_Blue_Rogue · #11 01-09-2002, 09:53 AM

Oh, and why is it that the only people against this so far are people who ALREADY HAVE their title and avatar?

Hmm, so what would everyones reaction be if I flooded this forum with spam?
"ONO BAN HIM HE SPAMMER SPAM=NO GOOD"
I know it would.
I also know all of you don't like that idea because all of you already have title an avatar. I also notice no one has replied to what I said..maybe because I'm right?

Josef Stalin · #15 01-09-2002, 10:02 AM

You are wrong.

Spam is not needed at all, and very un-enjoyable to read on the forums every day.

Spam wouldn't be gone if you got rid of the needed posts for avatar and title.

yea I know
but it certainly would LOWER the amount of spam.
Do you really believe ALL of the people who spam are just idiots who want to flood the board with useless posts?

Yes I know alot of them are, since alot of them already have title an avatar.
But it would lower spam amount. You can't deny that, there is atleast a few people who spam for avatar and title

Vyse_the_Blue_Rogue · #23 01-09-2002, 10:08 AM

AHA! I knew it!
The only people who agree are people who don't have title and avatar. The people who disagree are only people who like feeling "special" and therefore don't like that idea
or for non-biased version, only people who disagree have title and avatar and only people who agree don't

Yea somewhat true but your cry for everyone to not earn a title and an avatar won't happen. Spam is here to stay

what? huh?
My cry for everyone to not earn a title an avatar?
I didn't say get rid of it, I just said don't have it where you have to have a post count to get those.
And I'm going on LOWERING spam count. NOTHING can get rid of spam. I know that. But still, why won't anyone tell me why everyone is so against the idea?

Because the idea won't come into play, maybe we don't want spam to be lowered I don't know. It's funny to see people spam because sometimes the stuff they say is hilarious. It's hard to explain..but are you new to these forums? If you are stick around longer and you'll understand.

Vyse_the_Blue_Rogue · #30 01-09-2002, 10:22 AM

No I'm not new. My account that expired had close to getting 500 posts, and though thats not much, I didn't spam much and I came here alot, I'm not a newbie to graal or the forums

So maybe you're mad that you just about had an avatar but you gotta get there again? Maybe that's it but you just don't know it.

yea thats a reason, but I still want to know why only the people who said "no its a bad idea" were the people who already had avatar/title..and why they think its a bad idea

Josef Stalin · #33 01-09-2002, 10:29 AM

Maybe because we think it won't work?

I think I know why, I have an avatar and a title and I wouldn't like to see other people just get one just like that. It took me awhile to get mine, not that I care alot about mine it's just nice to have one when alot of other people don't.

ah yes, the ever so common "I don't want it because I wouldn't be as special then" graal reason
I should've known thats why

No it's not even close to that, I'm special because I own everyone

I just don't want to see people get an avatar and title for free when people like me waiting along time to get one and worked our posts up to get one. Like I said myself I really don't care about mine all that much but alot of other people with 1000+ posts will agree with me. We worked for ours, you will too.

no, you can think something won't work but still agree with it
like if I said "do you want it where you can drink soda and get $100 for every soda" you wouldn't think it would work, but you would agree that that would be cool.

IceHawk · #40 01-09-2002, 10:43 AM

In the beginning, people still spammed.
